Answer:

$5,704

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that

  • Amanda earns 92,000 per year.
  • The social security taxes are 6.2% per year, which is equivalent to 0.062.

Now, to know the how much Amanda will pay in taxes, we just need to multiply

[tex]92,000 \times 0.062 = 5,704[/tex]

Therefore, Amanda will pay $5,704 in social security taxes, because she earns 92,000 per year, and the taxes are 6.2% of her incomes per year.

So, the right answer is the second choice.
