When the ball hits the ground, the height is 0.

0 = 100 - 16t²

0 = (10 - 4t)(10 + 4t)

0 = 10 - 4t     or     0 = 10 + 4t

4t = 10          or       -4t = 10

 t = \frac{10}{4}             or          t = -\frac{10}{4}

Time cannot be negative (unless you have a time machine) so disregard  -\frac{10}{4}

Answer: t = \frac{5}{2} = 2.5 seconds
