Answer:   19.71 feet

Explanation:

Given:  Speed of Charlotte =58.6 mi/h

Since 1 hour = 3600 seconds

and 1 mile = 5280 feet

So, Speed of Charlotte = [tex]\dfrac{58.6\times5280}{3600}\approx85.95[/tex] mi/ sec

She looks down at her phone and takes her eyes off the road for 4.36 s.

Since , Distance = [tex]\dfrac{speed}{time}[/tex]

So, Distance = [tex]\dfrac{85.95}{4.36}=19.71\ feet[/tex]

Hence, Charlotte traveled  19.71 feet during this time.
