Someone please help me this is the last question on my homework. I have to write a quadratic equation for this word problem...

You are riding a ski lift at a position 57 feet off the ground. You spot one of your friends skiing below. To get his attention you chuck a snowball at him. How long will it take to hit your friend's head who is 42 feet below? Your friend is 5 1/2 feet tall.
