The screen should be placed far away from the mirror more than the object...the nature would be real or virtual, upright are inverted and diminished or enlarged in this case the image would be real, upright and enlarged because the distance of the screen is really far away from the mirror...

⛄ ɢɪᴠᴇɴ,

★ ᴀs ᴘᴇʀ ᴛʜᴇ ᴍɪʀʀᴏʀ ғᴏʀᴍᴜʟᴀ,
1/ᴜ + 1/ᴠ = 1/ғ
=) 1/ᴠ = 1/ғ - 1/ᴜ = -1/18 + 1/27 = -1/54
