    80 miles

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Note that the horizontal displacements of the jets are one and the same: - 20.

    Thus, the distance between the jets is the difference between 30 and - 50, which is 80 miles.

    The are on the same line which makes it much easier.

    30 - (-50) = 80 miles

    answer: 80 miles
