Two thin lenses are arranged coaxially in air. Lens 1 is a converging lens with focal length 12cm, and Lens 2 is a diverging lens with focal length −18cm. The lenses are separated by 40cm. A 1.5cm-tall object is placed 24cm in front of Lens 1 (on its left side). What is the height of the final image formed by the two-lens system? (Use a positive height for an upright final image.)
a) +0.79cm
b) −1.5cm
c) −0.79cm
d) −0.71cm
