A researcher claims that the incidence of a certain type of cancer is less than 5%. To test this claim, the a random sample of 4000 people are checked and 170 are determined to have the cancer. In this example, the p-value was determined to be 0.015. Come to a conclusion and interpret the results for this hypothesis test for a proportion (use a significance level of 5%)
