    Since my givens are x =.550m [Vsub0] = unknown

    [Asubx] = = 9.80

    [Vsubx]^2 = [Vsub0x]^2 + 2[Asubx] * (X-[Xsub0]

    [Vsubx]^2 = [Vsub0x]^2 + 2[Asubx] * (X-[Xsub0])

    Vsubx is the final velocity, which at the max height is 0, and Xsub0 is just 0 as that's where it starts so I just plug the rest in

    0^2 = [Vsub0x]^2 + 2[-9.80] * (.550)

    0 = [Vsub0x]^2 - 10.78

    10.78 = [Vsub0x]^2

    Sqrt (10.78) = 3.28 m/s
