# ExplanationTo determine how long it took the rocket to reach its maximum height, we would typically look at a graph that plots the height of the rocket against time. The point at which the graph reaches its highest value on the vertical axis (height) corresponds to the maximum height of the rocket. The time at which this occurs is read off the horizontal axis (time).However, since the actual graph is not provided in the question, I cannot visually inspect the graph to give a precise answer. Nonetheless, based on the options given, we can infer that these are likely the times at which significant events occurred during the rocket's flight, such as launch, reaching maximum height, and descent.Given that this is a multiple-choice question, and without the graph, we cannot determine the correct answer with certainty. However, if we assume that the options provided are in chronological order and that the rocket's flight follows a typical pattern of ascent to a peak height before descending, the middle value might represent the time it took to reach maximum height.# AnswerSince the graph is not provided, we cannot determine the correct answer with certainty. However, if we were to make an educated guess based on typical rocket flight patterns and the options presented, we might infer that the rocket took 7 seconds to reach its maximum height. But without the graph, this is purely speculative.Option3: 7 seconds
