Answer:

- 9.62 cm

Explanation:

location of image, v = + 34 cm

location of object, u = - 7.5 cm

Let f be the focal length of the mirror.

Use mirror formula,

1 / f = 1 / v + 1 / u

1 / f = 1 / 34 - 1 / 7.5

1 / f = (7.5 - 34) / (7.5 x 34)

f = - 9.62 cm

As the focal length is negative, so the mirror is concave in nature.
