Hey you, yes you.

First, let me apologize for being rude and not say hi but just come here for help. Hopefully Mr. Optician (sorry, I think it was Spex?) can help me answer this question. I need to answer ALL of 34 questions to get credit on this assignment and this is the last question. I have about 1.5 hrs before I go to work and until 11pm eastern time to turn in. I've spent soooooooooooo many hours doing the assignment that I don't want to not get credit. Can someone please help me?

question:
A patient wearing a 43.00D base curve, 9.0mm diameter, 7.0mm optical zone diameter requires a change to a 9.5mm diameter with a 7.5mm optical zone diameter. To keep the base curve corneal bearing relationship the same, the new base curve would need to be:.....

I know it's steeper, but how to find the exact amount? Is there a way to find it or is "steeper" the answer?

Thanks in advance!
