To calculate Ms. Tanaka's total earnings for selling 12 televisions, we will use the formula given:
\[
\text{Total Earnings} = 2500 + 100t
\]
where \(t\) represents the number of televisions sold.
Substituting \(t = 12\):
\[
\text{Total Earnings} = 2500 + 100 \cdot 12
\]
Calculating \(100 \cdot 12\):
\[
100 \cdot 12 = 1200
\]
Now, add that to the base salary:
\[
\text{Total Earnings} = 2500 + 1200 = 3700
\]
Therefore, Ms. Tanaka will earn **$3,700** for selling 12 televisions this month.
The correct answer is **$3,700**.
