Given:

the length of a segment with endpoints at (-3, 4) and (4,4)

Write the distance formula:


\sqrt[]{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

Substitute (-3,4) and(4,4) into above equation as,


\begin{gathered} \sqrt[]{(4+3)^2+(4-4)^2}=\sqrt[]{7^2+0} \\ =\sqrt[]{49} \\ =7 \end{gathered}

Hence, the required answer is 7.
