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.
