Answer:
I think its 6.40 but I'm not sure.
The ball takes approximately a time of 2.041 seconds to reach its maximum height.
<h3>What time does the ball take to reach maximum height?</h3>
The height of the ball as a function of time is modelled by a <em>quadratic</em> equation, the required information can be found by transforming the expression into <em>vertex</em> form:
h = - 4.9 · t² + 20 · t + 12
h = - 4.9 · (t² - 4.082 · t - 2.449)
h + (- 4.9) · (6.615) = - 4.9 · (t² - 4.082 · t + 4.166)
h - 32.414 = - 4.9 · (t - 2.041)²
The ball takes approximately a time of 2.041 seconds to reach its maximum height.

You just multiply the numerators of the fractions and the denominators of the fractions together, and then reduce the fraction to simplify it from that point on.
