You are waiting on the balcony of your apartment, as your friend, Ye, has gone out to buy you a pain au chocolat. When Ye returns, rather than walk to your apartment, he decides to toss your pain au chocolat to you. Thus, you are standing on your third‐story balcony with your hands 38 feet above the ground. If Ye throws the pain au chocolate with an initial velocity of 32 feet per second from 5 feet above ground, will you be able to catch it? Unfortunately, your downstairs neighbor is also hungry and will gladly take your treat. If your neighbor is standing at her two‐story balcony with her hands 20 feet above the ground, will she steal the pain au chocolat?

the highest point the pain au chocolat will reach is 21 feet, which is not high enough to reach me at 38 feet. Unfortunately, my neighbor will have a chance at stealing my treat because she is at 20 feet high.
