A baseball is thrown into the air from the top of a 224-foot tall building. The baseball's approximate height over time can be represented by the quadratic equation h(t) = -16t2 + 80t + 224, where t represents the time in seconds that the baseball has been in the air and h(t) represents the baseball's height in feet. When factored, this equation is h(t) = -16(t - 7)(t + 2).

What is a reasonable time for it to take the baseball to land on the ground?

A.
5 seconds
B.
9 seconds
C.
2 seconds
