  1. Let x be a random variable representing the SAT math score of student in a state. We may assume that has a normal distribution, and past studies have shown that the population standard deviation is 38.  A large university claims the mean SAT math score for incoming freshman is 680. You suspect that this claim is too high and decide to test the claim. You select a random sample of 32 incoming freshman and find the sample mean SAT math score to be 667.4. If you assume that the population mean is 680, find the P-value corresponding to the hypothesis that the average SAT score is less than 680.
