Answer:

18 ft

Explanation:

You want to know the length of the path from (4, 3) to (4, -4) and on to (-7, -4).

Distance

The vertical distance is the difference of the y-coordinates: 3 -(-4) = 7. The horizontal distance is the difference of the x-coordinates: 4 -(-7) = 11.

Then the total distance is 7 + 11 = 18 units, where each unit is 1 foot.

The distance traveled by the golf ball is 18 feet.
