Detailed Solution

If the distance of the object from the concave mirror is 4 times the focal length, then the position of the image will be obtained at v=-4f3.
Given,
The distance of the object from the concave mirror is 4 times the focal length, that is
u= -4f
Focal length, f= -f (concave mirror)
Using mirror formula, we get
      1f=1u+1v
1-f=1-4f+1v
  1v=14f-1f
  1v=-34f
   v=-4f3
