Claim: fleas can jump un unusually far distance for their size. If a person could jump as far as a flea, they could reach Lady Liberty's Torch. Information: The average flea is 1mm in length, and it can jump 13ins. 1mm = 0.0394in, and 1ft = 12ins. The height of the Statue of Liberty is 305ft tall.
Questions: Leah is 5'4'' tall
a) How far would Leah be able to jump if her proportional jump distance were the same a flea's?
b) Is the original claim true or false? Please justify.

i think its a and d

step-by-step explanation:

85.560%

step-by-step explanation:

conditional probability is defined as:

p(a|b) = p(a∩b) / p(b)

in other words, the probability that a occurs, given that b has occurred = the probability that both a and b occur / the probability that b occurs.

in this example:

p(turns 64 | turns 44) = p(turns 64 & turns 44) / p(turns 44).

if someone turns 64, they must have already turned 44, so:

p(turns 64 | turns 44) = p(turns 64) / p(turns 44)

on page 42, we see that of the original 100,000, 94944 turn 44, and 81234 turn 64.   therefore:

p(turns 64 | turns 44) = 81234 / 94944

p(turns 64 | turns 44) = 0.85560
