Answer: Aeva sold 69 red pins.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of pins with green beads that Aeva sold.

Let y represent the number of pins with red beads that Aeva sold.

Each pin with green beads sells for $3. Each pin with red beads sells for $2. She raised $312. It means that

3x + 2y = 312- - - - - - - - - - -1

The number of pins with green beads is 11 fewer than the number of pins with red beads. It means that

x = y - 11

Substituting x = y - 11 into equation 1, it becomes

3(y - 11) + 2y = 312

3y - 33 + 2y = 312

3y + 2y = 312 + 33

5y = 345

y = 345/5

y = 69

x = y - 11 = 69 - 11

x = 58

Bingel [31]
In the morning she worked 3 hours and 45 minutes. In the afternoon she worked 5 hours and 15 minutes. That is a total of 9 hours. At $16.50 per hour for 8 hours that comes to $132. Plus the 1 hour over time with breaks down to $18.50 plus $8.25 totaling $24.75. Add that to the $132 and she made a total of $156.75 for Wednesday’s work. I hope this helps with your question.
