Answer:

the image formed is virtual, this means that it is the prolongations of the rays that form the image. It is straight and magnified by the quantity

Step-by-step explanation:

In a lens there is a relationship between the focal length, the distance to the object and to the image given by the constructor equation

1 / f = 1 / o + 1 / i

where is the focal length, or and i are the distance to the object and the image respectively.

In the case presented, the object is within the focal length, so the image formed is virtual, this means that it is the prolongations of the rays that form the image. It is straight and magnified by the quantity

m = - i / o
