a. Since the above data set pertains to the single time period and not measuring the calls per workers across the years, thus, data set is cross sectional data set in the above case.
b. For the X variable, the unit of measurement is number of calls and for the Y variable which is the Air Quality Index, there is no unit of measurement because it is an index value.
c. To measure productivity, it is important to use calls per worker because it tells the number of calls being attended by each person and thus is a better measure of productivity as compared to total number of calls.
d. The median calls per worker on Monday = Total number of calls on Monday/ Total number of workers working on Monday

You are interested in analyzing whether pollution affects productivity at call centers. You have a dataset that lists daily calls per worker made from call centers in different cities. The data also shows the Air Quality Index at the city on that date. The Air Quality Index is a measure of the number of particles in the air that ranges from 0 to 500. Lower levels indicate less pollution. The following lines are an extract from the full dataset date...
