[12 PT] Yu are visiting yur Aunt Peg when yu ntice that she is hlding her reading glasses 10 cm frm her eyes t read a bk placed 45 cm in frnt f her eyes. Yu knw she shuld have her reading glasses (D=+2.5 m -1 ) resting n her nse 2 cm in frnt f her eyes when she is reading her bk 25 cm in frnt f her eyes. She tells yu nt t bther but yu want t get her new glasses. The prblem is she wn t g t the stre with yu s yu have t determine the crrect prescriptin. Gd thing yu tk physics!
