If the system matrix for a thin lens of focal length f is given by : S = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & -1/f \\ 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix} , show that the system matrix for a combination of two thin lenses of focal lengths f_1 and f_2 separated by a distance d can be obtained as S_{12} = \begin{bmatrix} 1 - d/f_2 & -(1/f_1 + 1/f_2 - d/f_1 f_2) \\ d & 1 - d/f_1 \end{bmatrix}
