Answer:

f = -60 cm, this means tha the focal point is on the same side as the side where the object is located.

Step-by-step explanation:

let u be the distance from the lens to the object and u = -35 cm, v be the distance from the lens to the image and m is the magnification and m = -v/u and f is the focal point.
