Final answer:

Krishna will not have donated all of her earned money before Christmas day.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine if Krishna will have donated all of her earned money before Christmas day, we need to calculate the total amount of money she earns in November and compare it to the total amount she donates in December.

In November, Krishna earns $8.00 for walking each dog and walks two dogs per day for 30 days. Therefore, the total amount she earns in November is 8 * 2 * 30 = $480.00.

In December, Krishna donates $18.00 on odd numbered days and $22.00 on even numbered days. There are 25 odd days and 25 even days from December 1 to December 25.

Therefore, the total amount she donates in December is 18 * 25 + 22 * 25 = $950.00.

Since Krishna earns $480.00 in November and donates $950.00 in December, she will not have donated all of her earned money before Christmas day. The correct answer is No.
