Question

If you are standing near the edge of the top of a 200 feet building and throw a ball vertically upward it will be modeled by the function s(t)=-16t^2+64t+200 where s(t) is the ball's height above ground in feet and t is seconds after the ball was thrown.
A) When does the ball reach its maximum height and what is the maximum height?
T= -b/2a
T= -64/-2(-16)
T= 2 seconds
How do I find the maximum height?
B) When does the ball hit the ground? (Round to the nearest tenth of a second)
Can you please help me with this question?
