1 answer
To find Ms. Tanaka's total earnings for selling 12 televisions, we can plug \( t = 12 \) into the given equation \( 2,500 + 100t \).
\[ = 2,500 + 100(12) \]
Calculating \( 100(12) \):
\[ 100(12) = 1,200 \]
Now, we add that to the base salary:
\[ = 2,500 + 1,200 = 3,700 \]
Thus, Ms. Tanaka will earn $3,700 for selling 12 televisions this month.
