Question: Statistical Software, Inc., offers a toll - free number where customers can call from 7 A . M . until 1 1 P . M

Statistical Software, Inc., offers a toll-free number where customers can call from 7 A.M. until 11 P.M. daily with problems involving the use of their products. It is impossible to have every call answered immediately by a technical representative, but it is important customers do not wait too long for a person to come on the line. Customers become upset when they hear the message Your call is important to us. The next available representative will be with you shortly too many times. To understand their process, Statistical Software decides to develop a control chart describing the total time from when a call is received until the representative answers the callers question. Yesterday, for the 16 hours of operation, four calls were sampled each hour. This information is reported on the next page, in minutes until a call was answered.
What are the Upper and Lower Control limits of the Range?
