A hiker gets lost climbing a mountain by his home. In a fit of anger, he threw his GPS off the cliff (a VERY bad decision). His GPS follows the path of y=−x2+65x+750y = -x^{2}+65x+750, starting at a height of y=750y=750 feet at x=0x=0. How far did his GPS go before it landed at ground level, y=0y=0? Give the positive answer of the quadratic.
