Answer 2

Answer:

$18,226.25

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the table, for an income between 37,951 and 91,900, the taxes are 5,226.25 plus 25% in excess of 37,951, which applies to this case, because the income is above $52,000 > $37,951.

So, the taxes would be

$5,226.25 + (0.25)(52,000)=5,226.25 +13,000.25=18,226.5$

Therefore, the right answer is the last one:

$18,226.25
