4. A rocket is launched vertically from the ground with an initial velocity of 48 ft/sec.
The basic form of a flying object equation is A(t)=-16t² + vot+he

(a) Write a quadratic function h(t) that shows the
height, in feet, of the rocket t seconds after it was
launched.
(b) Graph h(t) on the coordinate plane.
(c) Use your graph from Part 4(b) to determine the
rocket's maximum height, the amount of time it
took to reach its maximum height, and the
amount of time it was in the air.
Maximum height:
Time it took to reach maximum height:
