It gives function: h = -16t^2 + 40
water is when height is 0 so solve for 0= -16t^2 + 40
subtract 40 from both sides: -40 = -16t^2
divide by -16: -40/-16 = t^2
simplify: 5/2 = t^2
square root both sides: 1.58 = t

The value of a would be 3.5, as a=1 when b=10 means that a is worth 1/10 of b's value.
