Answer 1

You can use PHP's array_combine() function :
$data = $request->all();
$questions = $data['question_id'];
$answers = $data['answers'];
Answers::insert(array_combine($questions, $answers));
Here is a demo

Answer 2

If your questions and answers in right order (e.g. 1 => '1 year' and 2 => 'yes), than:
$data = collect($request->input('question_id'))
->combine($request->input('answers'));
Model::insert($data);

Answer 3

i end up using this method, and works perfectly
thanks for the answers guys stay healthy
$count = count($request->input('question_id'));
for($i = 0 ;$i < $count ; $i++){
$questions = $data['question_id'][$i];
$answers = $data['answers'][$i];
Answers::create([
'application_id' => $applicant['id'],
'question_id' => $questions,
'answer' => $answers
]);
}
