For the E=mgh question what would I do with E?

A quick sketch

How i wanted it to be

Since i plug in E= mgh to E =1/2kx^2. How would i know i Jumped my height

So Looking at the equations given, I think I would Find E, find a distance for the spring to be compressed, then plug it in the compressed spring equation and isolate K to find the constant?

Basically I would jump Like I would on a trampoline but with shoes

Yeah, its a hypothetical question. Dont know how I would approach this

Thank you. Lets say I have shoes that have springs on them. My goal is to find the spring constant on my springs to jump my height. The only thing given is my weight and my height to achieve the jump

In my springs what would the spring constant need to be If I am 1.8m tall and I weigh 68 kg
