    Answer:

    \boxed{\sf Position \ of \ the \ image = 6 \ cm}

    \boxed{\sf Nature \ of \ the \ image = Virtual \ and \ Erect}

    Given:

    Object distance (u) = -10 cm

    Focal length (f) = 15 cm

    To Find:

    Image distance (v) and nature of the image

    Explanation:

    Mirror Formula:

    \boxed{\bold{\sf \frac{1}{v} + \frac{1}{u} = \frac{1}{f}}}

    Substituting values of u and f in the equation:

    \sf \implies \frac{1}{v} -\frac{1}{10} =\frac{1}{15}

    \sf \implies \frac{1}{v}=\frac{1}{15} +\frac{1}{10}

    \sf \implies \frac{1}{v}=\frac{2}{30}+\frac{3}{30}

    \sf \implies \frac{1}{v}=\frac{2+3}{30}

    \sf \implies \frac{1}{v}=\frac{5}{30}

    \sf \implies v=\frac{30}{5}

    \sf \implies v=6 \ cm

    \therefore

    Image distance (v) = 6 cm

    Nature of the image = Virtual and Erect
