The height is given as 5.05 x 10⁻⁵ miles.

Because this is in English units, we should reduce the height to inches.

Note that
1 mile = 5280 ft
           = 5280*12 = 63360 in

Therefore the height is
(5.08 x 10⁻⁵ miles)*(63360 in/mile) = 3.219 in

Answer:
3.2 in (nearest tenth)
The given measurement is in English units, so the conversion stays in English units.
