Answer:

The answer to your problem is:

A. 6.4

B. -0.25

C. converging

Step-by-step explanation:

[ /Part A/ ]

We know that;


(1)/(32) + (1)/(8) + (1)/(f)

Then equals

6.4
Which
is
our
answer

[ /Part B/ ]

We can solve the problem which equals to:

$$ M = -
\frac {q}{p} = -
\frac {8}{32}

Solve: -0.25

[ /Part C/ ]

In the problem we now that ‘ f ‘ is more less than ‘ o ‘ is converging.

Shown, since ‘ f ‘ > ‘ 0 ‘ lens is converging

Thus the answer to your problem is:

Part A. 6.4

Part B. -0.25

Part C. converging
