Part (a)

t = time in seconds

h(t) = height of the rocket

The general projectile equation is

h(t) = -16t^2 + vt + k

where v is the starting or initial velocity (in this case v = 64) and k is the starting height (k = 0 in this case)

Therefore, the equation is h(t) = -16t^2 + 64t

==================================================

Part (b)

See graph below. I recommend using your graphing calculator or some online free tool to get the job done. Doing this by hand would be a pain and it could lead to inaccuracies. I used GeoGebra to make the graph.

To get it done by hand, you basically plug in various t values to find corresponding h(t) values. This leads to generating points in which you draw a parabolic curve through them all.

==================================================

Part (c)

The graph from part (b) shows that the highest point is at (2,64), which is where point B is located.

This means that after t = 2 seconds, the largest height is reached at h(t) = 64 feet.

The rocket then takes another 2 seconds to go from the highest point back down to the ground.

The total time the rocket is in the air is 4 seconds. We could double the value t = 2, or note the distance between A and C on the x axis.
