The distance between the mirror and your face is 39.5 cm

Using the mirror formula 2/r = 1/u + 1/v where r = radius of curvature = - 48.2 cm, u = distance between mirror and your face = object distance and v = distance between image and your face = - 61.8 cm. The distances are negative since the image is in front of the mirror and distances to the left of the mirror are negative.

So, making u subject of the formula, we have

2/r = 1/u + 1/v

1/u = 2/r - 1/v

1/u = (2v - r)/rv

u = rv/(2v - r)

Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, wse have

u = -48.2 cm × -61.8 cm/(2 × -61.8 cm - (-48.2 cm))

u = 2978.76 cm²/(-123.6 cm + 48.2 cm)

u = 2978.76 cm²/-75.4 cm

u = -39.51 cm

u ≅ -39.5 cm (The distance is negative since it is in front of the mirror)

So, the distance between the mirror and your face is 39.5 cm
