The answer is $4,200.00.
Multiply 2 by 60 for the hourly pay. Then, multiply that answer by 5 for the daily pay, which I assume is 5 hours each day. Finally, muliply that by 7 for the days worked.

pay=pay per minute times minutes
find how many minutes

1hr=60 mins
times 5
5hr=300mins

7 days
300min per day
ties 7
2100mins total

pay=salary rate times mins
pay=2 times 2100
pay=4200

makes $4200 per week
(he makes $120 per hour, that's alot!)
