right on the second. On the first, how can the image be at the focus? That is where infinite distance rays converge.
Oh yeah. I re-did it and the answer is C-15cm...?
A 5.0-cm real object is placed at a distance of 30.0 cm from a concave mirror of focal length 10.0 cm.
Find the location of the image.
ANSWER: C

Height of the object = 5.0 cm
Distance = 30.0 cm
Focal length = 10.0 cm

This is the equation:
1/Do + 1/v = 1/f

which means:
1/[distance] + 1/[location] = 1/[Focal length]

1/30.0 + 1/v = 1/10.0
1/ ((1/10.0) - (1/30.0)) = v
14.999999 = v = the location
