6. A television company believes that the proportion of households that can receive Channel C is 0.35 .
  1. In a random sample of 14 households it is found that 2 can receive Channel C. Test, at the \(2.5 \%\) significance level, whether there is evidence that the proportion of households that can receive Channel C is less than 0.35 .
  2. On another occasion the test is carried out again, with the same hypotheses and significance level as in part (i), but using a new sample, of size \(n\). It is found that no members of the sample can receive Channel C. Find the largest value of \(n\) for which the null hypothesis is not rejected. Show all relevant working.
