Answer: C

Explanation:

  • If Tom goes at 30 mph, he will be 90 miles away from the starting point after three hours.
  • If Juanita goes at 27 mph, she will be 81 miles away from the starting point after three hours.
  • 81 + 90 = 171
  • They will be 171 miles apart after three hours.

The answer is C. 171. You multiply 30 by 3 to get 90 and then multiply 27 by 3 to get 81. Then you add 81 and 90 to get 171. Hope this helps!
