document.write( "Hasty Henry and Careless Carrie are so disappointed about their grade on the quiz that they asked to do an extra project. The project involved them attaching a quiz to an item and throwing it off the roof of a 12 story, 165 foot building. Carrie attaches hers to a rock and just drops it. Henry attaches his to a slightly smaller rock but throws it down at 48 feet per second. The height in feet after (t) seconds of Carries rock is given by the equation.

document.write( "C(t)=-16t^2+165, Henrys' is H(t)=-16t^2-48t+165.

document.write( "The only thing that i see is that Henry has a speed attached to his problem. How should I break down this problem? Thanks for any help in advance. It is very much appreciated.
