v(t) = v(0) + ½ a t
Given:
g = -9.8m/s
t = 7.99s
Half way up the ball will reach 0 velocity.
0 = v + ¼ g t
Alternatively, all the way back, the ball will have a velocity equal but opposite to its initial.
-v = v + ½ g t
Use either equation to solve for v.

Correction:
use v(t) = v(0) + a t
v(½ t) = 0, so: 0 = v + ½ g t
v(t) = -v, so: -v = v + g t
use v(t) = v(0) + a t
v(½ t) = 0, so: 0 = v + ½ g t
v(t) = -v, so: -v = v + g t
