Given f = - 20 cm, (sign convention) , v = - 10 cm
(∴ image formed by concave lens is virtual)
By using lens formula,

or u = - 20
Thus the object is placed at 20 cm from the concave lens

Here is ur answer

Focal length of concave mirror, f = -20 cm
Distance of object from the mirror, u = -10 cm
use formula, 1/v + 1/u = 1/f
or, 1/v = 1/f - 1/u
or, 1/v = 1/-20 - 1/-10
or, 1/v = -1/20 + 1/10 = 1/20
or, v = +20cm
hence, image position is the 20cm right side from the pole of the concave mirror as shown in the diagram. The image is straight and bigger than the object.
