The dashed part of the thin lens is cut out and kept on the x axis as shown in the diagram. If parallel paraxial rays are falling on this system then the coordinate of image formed after refraction from both the lenses is (30,1). If x=2.5, then (all the distance is in cm) (Assume that the lens have no spherical aberration):
