To calculate Manny's total earnings from both jobs, we can use the hourly rates and the number of hours worked:
1. Earnings from aerobics instruction:
\[
\text{Earnings from aerobics instructor} = 21.00 \, \text{(per hour)} \times 4 \, \text{(hours)} = 84.00
\]
2. Earnings from working at the skating rink:
\[
\text{Earnings from skating rink} = 12.50 \, \text{(per hour)} \times 8 \, \text{(hours)} = 100.00
\]
Now, we can sum the two amounts to find her total earnings:
\[
\text{Total earnings} = 84.00 + 100.00 = 184.00
\]
Thus, Manny will earn **$184.00** from both jobs combined.
