A method currently used by doctors to screen patients for a certain type of cancer fails to detect cancer in 15% of the patients who actually have the disease. A new method has been developed that researchers hope will be able to detect cancer more accurately. A random sample of 80 patients known to this type of cancer is screened using the new method and the method failed to detect the cancer in 8 patients. At the 5% level of significance, can the researchers conclude that the new method is better than the one currently in use? (Can they conclude that the new method fails to detect cancer in less than 15% of the patients who actually have the disease?)
