Answer: Juliet is 55 m far from the beginning of the track point.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the starting point of the track be O and the end point be P.

OP = 100 meter

Let the point marked 10 m be Q. From where Juliet starts practicing.

Distance covered by Juliet = 45 m from point Q to point R

Distance of the Juliet from start point O to point R:

OR = OQ + QR = 10 m+ 45 m = 55 m

Juliet is 55 m far from the beginning of the track point.

Since Juliet is 45 meters away from the 10-meter mark of the track, the 10-meter mark is 10 meters away from the 0 mark at the start of the track. To know her distance to the beginning, you must add 10 to any distance from the 10-meter mark. To solve her total distance, add 45 and 10. As a result, she is 55 meters away from the start of the track.
