Answer

$d_i=-15cm$, $m=0.52$

Work Step by Step

We can find the image distance as $d_i=(\frac{1}{f}-\frac{1}{d_{\circ}})^{-1}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $d_i=(\frac{1}{-32}-\frac{1}{29})^{-1}$ $d_i=-15cm$ Now we can find the magnification $m=-\frac{d_i}{d_{\circ}}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $m=-\frac{-15}{29}=0.52$
