The problem states that Tandor's starting wage is $10.53 per hour for 30 hours per week. If he works more than 30 hours, he is paid 1.25 times his regular salary for the extra hours. We are asked to find out how much Tandor will earn if he works 35 hours in one week.

### Step-by-Step Solution:

1. **Regular Wage (for 30 hours):**
   Tandor earns $10.53 per hour for up to 30 hours. So, for 30 hours:
   \[
   30 \times 10.53 = 315.90 \, \text{(regular pay)}
   \]

2. **Overtime Wage:**
   For the extra hours (35 - 30 = 5 hours), Tandor earns 1.25 times his regular hourly rate. So, his overtime rate is:
   \[
   10.53 \times 1.25 = 13.1625 \, \text{(overtime rate per hour)}
   \]
   The total overtime pay for 5 hours is:
   \[
   5 \times 13.1625 = 65.8125
   \]

3. **Total Weekly Earnings:**
   Adding the regular pay and overtime pay:
   \[
   315.90 + 65.8125 = 381.7125
   \]

Therefore, Tandor's total earnings for 35 hours in one week are **$381.71** (rounded to two decimal places).
