A candy company claims that the proportions of lemon, lime, cherry, and grape candies in its fruit-flavored candy bags are equal. A random sample of 500 candies gave the following results: 138 lemon, 114 lime, 130 cherry, and 118 grape. Use a significance level of 0.05 to test the claim that the proportions are what the candy company states. (Remember to state the null and alternative hypotheses, p-value, conclusion about the null hypothesis and final conclusion that addresses the original claim, i.e. explanatory sentence).
