Your question makes no sense. Why would you use the quadratic formula? The quadratic formula is for finding the zeros of a quadratic function. You want the maximum value of the function.
The 
-coordinate of the vertex, and the value of at which the maximum height is reached is given by:
Where 
and 
are the lead and 1st degree term coefficients of your function. Once you determine 
plug it into the function to determine the height at that time which will be the maximum height.
