To determine the total amount of rain that fell during the week, we need to sum up the daily rainfall amounts for each day in the week.

The given rainfall amounts for each day are:
- Day 1: 2 inches
- Day 2: 0.58 inches
- Day 3: 0 inches
- Day 4: 0.2 inches
- Day 5: 0 inches
- Day 6: 0.9 inches
- Day 7: 2.15 inches

We add these daily values together to find the total rainfall for the week:

[tex]\[ 2 + 0.58 + 0 + 0.2 + 0 + 0.9 + 2.15 \][/tex]

When you sum these values, the total rainfall is:

[tex]\[ 2 + 0.58 + 0 + 0.2 + 0 + 0.9 + 2.15 = 5.83 \][/tex]

Therefore, the total amount of rain that fell during the week is 5.83 inches.

Among the provided options, the correct answer is:

[tex]\[ \boxed{5.83} \][/tex]
