Please solve this by hand and also with r-studio code not the excel output please. 

An experimenter is interested in the hypothesis testing problem with H0: µ = 420 versus Ha: µ <
420, where µ is the average radiation level in a research laboratory. Suppose that a sample of 49
radiation level measurements is obtained and that the experimenter wishes to use σ=10.0 for the
standard deviation of the radiation levels.
(a) What is the rejection region when α=0.01?
(b) Suppose that the sample mean is 415.7. What would be the experimenter’s decision of the
hypothesis test based on the rejection region?
(c) What is the p-value for this hypothesis test?
