i'd say the last one and i'll explain how i got that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if it starts at 15 feet above your C value (in the for ax2+bx+c) must be 15. Then if it's going upwards the front value must be positive, and then if it's going 125 feet per second, or in this case it would be the value of x, your b value must be 125. That leads us to the conclusion that \[16x ^{2}+125x+15\] is the answer

It can't be the last one. When dealing with projectile motion, the leading coefficient is always negative (since gravity is pulling the object down)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but it says the projectile is moving at a constant upwards motion

OpenStudy (vishweshshrimali5):

Is their gravity present ?

with a positive leading coefficient, the parabola looks like this |dw:1406166711001:dw|

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

With a negative leading coefficient, we have this |dw:1406166726609:dw|
