To find out how much Ms. Tanaka will earn for selling 12 televisions, we will substitute $ t = 12 $ into the given equation $ 2,500 + 100t $.

\[ Earnings = 2,500 + 100t \]

Substituting $ t = 12 $:

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

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

The correct response is $3,700.
