Section 2.1
Class limits are possible data values, and they specify the span of data values that fall within a class. Class
boundaries are not possible data values; they are values halfway between the upper class limit of one class and
the lower class limit of the next class.
2. Each data value must fall into one class. Data values above 50 do not have a class.
3. The classes overlap. A data value such as 20 falls into two classes.

7. (a) The distribution is most likely skewed right, with many short times and only a few long wait times.
(b) A bimodal distribution might exist if there are different wait times during busy versus slow periods.
During the morning rush, many long wait times might occur, but during the slow afternoon, most wait
times will be very short.
8. The data set consists of the numbers 1 up through 100, with each value occurring once. The histogram will be
uniform.

11. (a) The range of data seem to fall between 7 and 13 with the bulk of the data between 8 and 12.
(b) All three histograms are somewhat mound-shaped with the top of the mound between 9.5 and 10.5. In all
three histograms the bulk of the data fall between 8 and 12.

(b) Graph (i) 0-17; Graph (ii) 1-16; Graph (iii) 0-28.
(c) Graph (iii) is most clearly skewed right; Graph (ii) is somewhat skewed right; Graph (i) is barely skewed
right.
(d) No, each random sample of same size froma population is equally likely to be drawn. Sample (iii) most
clearly reflects the properties of the population. Sample (ii) reflects the properties fairly well, but
sample(i) seems to differ more from the described population.
13. (a) Because there are 50 data values, divide each cumulative frequency by 50 and convert to a percent.

Transposition of Lenses
It is commonly understood that transposition of lenses is merely
change of form, but not of value.
For example, a lens +1.00 sph. = -.50 cyl. axis 180° may be
transposed to its equivalent, which is +.50 sph. = +.50 cyl. axis 90°.
The accepted formula in this special instance is as follows:
Algebraically add the two quantities for the new sphere, retain the
power of the original cylinder, but change its sign and reverse its axis
90 degrees. Applying this rule, a lens +.75 sph. = -.25 cyl. axis 180°,
is equivalent to +.50 sph. = +.25 cyl. axis 90°.
Similarly, a lens +1.00 sph. = -1.00 cyl. axis 180° is equivalent to
+1.00 cyl. axis 90°.
One of the difficulties in transposing is in reversing the axis. In
such cases, it is well to memorize the following simple rule:
To reverse the axis of any cylindrical lens containing three
numerals—add the first two together and carry the last. For example,
from 105 to 180 degrees, etc.:
105° Add—one and “0” equals 1 Then carry the 5 = 15°
120° Add—one and two equals 3 Then carry the 0 = 30°
130° Add—three and one equals 4 Then carry the 0 = 40°
150° Add—five and one equals 6 Then carry the 0 = 60°
165° Add—six and one equals 7 Then carry the 5 = 75°
180° Add—eight and one equals 9 Then carry the 0 = 90°
Rigidity of Construction
Illustration on following page (Fig. 11a) shows the reinforced
double bearing arms which hold the Ski-optometer lens batteries at
two points. This eliminates possibility of the instrument getting out of
alignment, and prevents wabbling or loose working parts.
The broad horizontal slides shown in the cut, move in and out
independently so that the pupillary distance is obtained for each eye
separately by turning the pinioned handle on either side of the
instrument. The scale denotes in millimeters the P.D. from the
median line of the nose outward, the total of both scales being the
patient’s pupillary distance.
Fig. 11a also serves to show the staunch construction of the base
of the Ski-optometer.

The Phorometer
As previously stated, it is practically impossible to accurately
diagnose a case of muscular imbalance with trial-case prisms. For
this reason the phorometer forms an important part of the equipment
for muscle testing in the Ski-optometer, having proven both rapid and
accurate. It consists of two five-degree prisms with bases opposite,
each reflecting an object toward the apex or thin edge. The patient
whose attention is directed to the usual muscle-testing spot of light,
will see two spots.
Aside from the instrument itself, and in further explanation of the
phorometer’s principle and construction, when two five-degree
prisms are placed together so that their bases are directly opposite,
they naturally neutralize; when their bases are together, their
strength is doubled. Thus while the prisms of the phorometer are
rotating, they give prism values from plano to ten degrees, the same
being indicated by the pointer on the phorometer’s scale of
measurements.
As a guide in dark-room testing, it should be noted that the
handle of the phorometer in a vertical position is an indication that
the vertical muscles are being tested; if horizontal, the horizontal
muscles are undergoing the test.
