Exercise 3.7 asks you to summarise various key elements of ray tracing according to the things we have started to set up. 

In particular, please summarise here what the system matrix might look like for a ray moving a distance d1 encountering a thin lens and then moving a distance d2 and how we could combine (the matrices of) many lenses into a (system matrix for a) chain of lenses?
