  1. The total amount the tutor earned in a week is $525.
    Unitary Method
    The unitary technique determines the value of the a unit and subsequently the value of a necessary number of units.
    Given,
    The charge of a tutor for one hour = $30
    In a week,
    The total hours taken by the tutor for one student = 5 and half hours
    The total hours taken by the tutor for another student = 12 hours
    ∴ The total hours taken by the tutor in that week = 5 and half + 12 = 17 and half hours.
    Then,
    The amount earned by the tutor for first student = 5 1/2 × 30 = 165$
    The amount earned by the tutor for second student = 12 × 30 = 360$
    ∴ The total amount earned by the tutor in that week = 165 + 360 = 525$
