Explanation / Answer

given
ho = 0.32 m
u = do = -0.38 m
f = -0.051 m
from lens formula
1/v - 1/u = 1/f
1/v = -1/0.051 - 1/0.38
v = -0.044965 m

hence di = 0.044965 m to the left of the lens

a. di = u*f/(u + f) = -do*f/(f - do)
b. di = 0.044965 m
c. the image is virtual
d. hi = 0.32*0.044965/0.38 = 0.03786542
