Expert Solution
Step 1

The information given is,

sample mean=X=48.1

sample size=n=51

population standard deviation=σ=6.9

to test,

H0:μ=51.2 vs H1:μ<51.2

So value of test statistic is,

nX-μσ=5148.1-51.26.9=-3.2

The p-value is found via the z-table.

From the table, the value obtained is 0.00069  0.0007

α is given to be 0.001.

So, p-value is less than α.
