Motion in region OA = Uniformly accelerated

Motion in region AB = Uniformly motion (No acceleration)

Motion in region BC = Uniformly retarded

Motion in region CD = Uniformly motion (No acceleration)

Total displacement

   = Displacement in OA + Displacement in AB

     + Displacement in BC + Displacement in CD

  = 8 + 64 + 12 + 16

  = 100 m
