Manetho

Answer:

Explanation:

For Bill's glasses)

d_o=25 cm-2 cm=23.2 cm

d_i=129 cm-2 cm=127 cm

We know that

[tex]1 / f = 1 / d_o + 1 / d_i [/tex]

[tex]f=(1 / d_o + 1 / d_i)^-1 [/tex]

so plug the numbers in

[tex]f = (1 / (23) + 1 / (127))^-1 [/tex]

= 28.08 cm

For Anna's glasses)

d_o=25 cm-2 cm=23 cm

d_i=70.0 cm-2 cm=68 cm

Same thing

[tex](1 / f = 1 / d_o + 1 / d_i )[/tex]

[tex]f=(1 / do + 1 / di)^-1 [/tex]

so plug the numbers in

[tex]f = (1 / (23) + 1 / (68))^-1 [/tex]

= 17.21 cm
