Answer:

$y + 4 = -\frac{5}{6}(x - 8)$

Part of distance covered on Thursday by Jen is given by

$6\frac{1}{4}\\\\=\frac{25}{4}$

Total part of distance covered in these four days by Jen is given by

$\frac{19}{4}+\frac{41}{8}+0+\frac{25}{4}\\\\=\frac{38+41+0+50}{8}\\\\=\frac{129}{8}=16.125\ miles$

Remaining part of distance will be covered on Friday to reach her goal which is given by
