Can someone help me with the brick collision?

Question

I've done the entire code up to collision. (WHICH GETS ME EVERY TIME!!!). First of all, the collision won't even register. Second of all, when it did, it just goes back in the same direction. Somehow I need to test if the ball hits the top/bottom (then y speed *= -1), and the left/right (then x speed *= -1). What's the point in even doing this? I've doing this for over a year and still can't do basic collision!
