To calculate Kailyn's total earnings, first, determine how many hours she worked per week, then multiply by the number of weeks in two years, and finally multiply by her hourly rate.

Total weeks in 2 years = ( 2 \text{ years} \times 52 \text{ weeks/year} = 104 \text{ weeks} )

Total earnings = ( 104 \text{ weeks} \times 7 \text{ days/week} \times $50/hour )

Total earnings = ( 104 \times 7 \times $50 =$ 36,400 )
