She will be 55 meter far from the beginning of the track.

Explanation:

Juliet starts at the 10-meter mark.

Initial displacement from starting = 10 meter.

She runs 45 meters to the 100 meter line.

Displacement = 45 meters.

Final displacement from starting = Initial displacement from starting + 45

Final displacement from starting = 10 + 45

Final displacement from starting = 55

She will be 55 meter far from the beginning of the track.
