The headlights of a car are mounted at a height of 2.5ft. If the light beam drops 1 in per 37ft, how far ahead in the road will the headliners illuminate? No wrong answer please. Give me a whole number or decimal. Thanks!

Answer:

  1110 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

2.5 feet is 30 inches. The beam will drop to 0 inches above the street at a distance that is 30 times as far as it takes for a 1-inch drop.

  (30 in)(37 ft/(1 in)) = 1110 ft

The headlights will illuminate the road 1110 feet ahead.
