A thin lens is made of material that has an index of refraction of 1.50. When an object 10 mm tall is placed 500 mm away from the lens, an upright image 31.5 mm tall is formed. One surface of the lens is concave, with an absolute value of radius of curvature of 350 mm.

What is the radius of curvature of the other surface? Express your answer with the appropriate units. Follow the sign convention
