Problem

Optic axis of a thin equiconvex lens is the x-axis. The coordinates of a point object and its image are (−40 cm,1 cm)(-40 \text{ cm}, 1 \text{ cm}) and (50 cm,−2 cm)(50 \text{ cm}, -2 \text{ cm}) respectively. Lens is located at (a) x=+20 cmx = +20 \text{ cm} (b) x=−30 cmx = -30 \text{ cm} (c) x=−10 cmx = -10 \text{ cm} (d) origin
