Kathy, a fashion model, witnessed a motor vehicle accident but did not stop because she was late for her pedicure and simply did

n't want to get involved. Had she stopped, she could have saved the life of Tom, who was thrown from the car and landed in a water filled ditch, without danger to herself. When Tom's widow heads that Kathy could have easily saved Tom's life but chose to ignore the situation, she sued Kathy. The state has no "Good Samaritan" laws or duty to assist laws, but such cases have been brought in the past. Which of the following will the court apply when making a decision in this case?

Answer:

common law

Explanation:

When good samaritan law does not apply in a certain state, the common law tends to dictate that a person cannot be held liable to the negative results of an accident as long as that person is not directly involved or hindering the helping process.

Even though Kathy's behavior is morally wrong, she's most likely wouldn't receive legal punishment. That's being said,  She might receive social punishment (such as backlash from other people who knows about the case)

Because Egypt gets little rainfall, Egyptians relied on the Nile River for water. They used its water for fishing, farming, cooking, and cleaning.

They are the Blue Nile in eastern Africa and the White Nile in central Africa.

Answer:

Lower supply and a shortage

Explanation:

In cases of emergency the prices connected with some good normally increases, even if the good isn't produced in the affected area. The costs of transport, logistic, storage and selling e.g, increases because of shortage of all other goods, reflecting in a chain effect. When a price is set below the equilibrium price, the quantity supplied will be lower than the quantity demanded, by consequence the maximum price may lead a lower supply and a shortage.
