1 answer

To find Ms. Tanaka's total earnings for selling 12 televisions, we can substitute \( t = 12 \) into the equation \( 2,500 + 100t \).

Calculating this:

\[ 2,500 + 100(12) = 2,500 + 1,200 = 3,700 \]

Thus, Ms. Tanaka will earn $3,700 for selling 12 televisions this month.

The correct answer is:

$3,700
