Answer:

8 units.

Explanation:

We are asked to find the length of the segment with endpoints (-3,4) and (5,4). We will use distance formula to solve our given problem as:


D=√((x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2)

Let point
(-3,4)=(x_1,y_1) and point
(5,4)=(x_2,y_2).


D=√((5-(-3))^2+(4-4)^2)


D=√((5+3)^2+(0)^2)


D=√((8)^2+0)


D=√(64)


D=8

Therefore, the length of the segment is 8 units.
