What do 169 and 225 and 289 all have in common (besides they are all odd)?

The chs baseball team was on the field and the batter popped the ball up. the equation b(t)=80t-16•16+3.5 represents the height of the ball above the ground in feet as a function of time in seconds. how long will the catcher have to get in position to catch the ball before it hits the ground? round to the nearest second

How to do this , and can some one explain

1. a parachutist is 800 feet above the ground when she opens her parachute. she then falls at a constant rate of 5 feet per second. select the equation that represents this situation. h = -800t + 5 y = -5x + 800 h = 5t - 800 y = 800x + 5 i need
