A particular brand of dishwasher soap is sold in three sizes: 25 oz, 35 oz, and 60 oz. Twenty percent of all purchasers select a 25-oz box, 50% select a 35-oz box, and the remaining 30% choose a 60-oz box. Let X1 and X2 denote the package sizes selected by two independently selected purchasers.

(a) Determine the sampling distribution of 
X.

p(x)                                  

Calculate 
E(X).

E(X) =

Compare 
E(X)
 to ?.
E(X) > ?
E(X) < ?
    
E(X) = ?

(b) Determine the sampling distribution of the sample variance S2.
