 First refraction through lens,

1v'-1-30=1+151v'=-130+115 v'=+30cm

This image acts as virtual object for plane mirror. Image by the mirror is formed at 20 cm before mirror.

Second refraction through lens,

1v-1+10=1+15 1v=110+115=25150  v=+6 cm

Hence, final image is real and is situated at a distance of 16 cm from the mirror.
