Question
### Problem 6.3.11

#### Context:
The assets (in billions of dollars) of the four wealthiest people in a particular country are 33, 32, 23, and 15. Assume that samples of size n = 2 are randomly selected with replacement from this population of four values. 

#### Objective:
After identifying the 16 different possible samples and finding the mean of each sample, construct a table representing the sampling distribution of the sample mean. In the table, values of the sample mean that are the same have been combined.

#### Table:

| \(\bar{x}\) | Probability | \(\bar{x}\) | Probability |
|-------------|--------------|-------------|--------------|
| 33          | ☐            | 24          | ☐            |
| 32.5        | ☐            | 23.5        | ☐            |
| 32          | ☐            | 23          | ☐            |
| 28          | ☐            | 19          | ☐            |
| 27.5        | ☐            | 15          | ☐            |
