Test Item/ Question	A penny is dropped from a height of 25 ft and the equation modeling its height as a function of time is . The penny is dropped a second time from an unknown height, but students used a motion detector to create a graph of its height versus time. This new graph is 12 units lower than the original graph. What is the equation for the second drop?
Answer choices (indicate correct answer with an *) Record only correct answer in first drafts.
A. (Step 1)	Create a graph for the first time the penny is dropped.
B. (Step 2)	Determine what the new y-intercept will be.
C. (Step 3)	Draw the graph for the second drop on the same set of axes.
D. (Step 4)	Write the equation for the 2nd drop.
E. (Correct answer)
