You forgot to print your question.

Nevertheless, you are lucky, because I prepared a bunch of lessons for you on a projectile thrown/shot/launched vertically up
    - Problem on a projectile moving vertically up and down
    - Problem on an arrow shot vertically upward
    - Problem on a ball thrown vertically up from the top of a tower
    - Problem on a toy rocket launched vertically up from a tall platform


Also, you have this free of charge online textbook in ALGEBRA-I in this site
