7 miles west and 2 miles south of the center of town. She drives to a movie
theater, which is 5 miles east and 3 miles north of the center of town. If

Answer :

Kirsten had to drive 5 miles north, and then turn to the east for 12 miles where she found a nice parking spot at the Movie Theater :)

If the image represents the road she drove, she did travel 5 + 12 miles, thus she finally travelled 17 miles.
