A hot air balloon has just lifted off and is rising at a constant rate of 2.0 m/s. Suddenly one of the passengers realizes she has left her camera on the ground. A friend picks it up and tosses it straight upward with an initial speed of 12 m/s. If the passenger is 2.5 m above her friend when the camera is tossed, how high is she above her friend when the camera reaches her?

Question
Please help with part 7-please see attached:
Answers to other parts:
6-
t=1.75s or t=291s
h=3.082m
The minimum time to reach the hot air balloon is 0.291s so the height when the camera reaches the friend is 3.082m. Question 7 is asking if the result is believable, I believe it is given the velocity and the distance to the hot air balloon, but unsure how to expand upon the answer. Thank you :)
