A coordinate plane shows the x-axis ranging from negative 9 to 9 in unit increments and the y-axis ranging from negative 11 to 11 in unit increments. Four plotted points upper A upper B upper C upper D are joined to form a rectangle. The coordinates of the plotted points are as follows: point upper A is left parenthesis 3 comma 4 right parenthesis, point upper B is left parenthesis negative 5 comma 4 right parenthesis, point upper C is left parenthesis negative 5 comma 8 right parenthesis, and point upper D is left parenthesis 3 comma 8 right parenthesis.

The length of the rectangle is 8 - 4 = 4 units and the width is 3 - (-5) = 8 units.

Therefore, the area of rectangle ABCD is 4 * 8 = 32 square units, which equals 32 square feet.

So, the answer is 32 feet.
