<em />
Explanation:
In contributory negligence, the defense completely bars plaintiffs from any recovery if they contribute to their own injury through their own negligence.
<em>If this law of contributory negligence applies to the state, then Ramona will receive no compensation for the damages she sustained. </em>
<em>
</em>
In comparative negligence, the plaintiff's damages is award by the percentage of fault that the fact-finder assigns to the plaintiff for his or her own injury i.e the plaintiff's damage compensation is reduced by percentage of his/her percentage of fault.
<em>If this law of comparative negligence applies to this state, then Ramona will get 100% - 20% = 80% of the damages incurred in the accident, from John</em>
this is 80% of $100,00 which is equal to <em>$80,000</em>

<u><em></em></u>
- <u><em>Law of demand</em></u>
<u><em></em></u>
Explanation:
Indeed, the <em>law of demand </em>is that the price and quantity demanded are inversely related. <em>Ceteris paribus</em>, the economist say. It is a latin expression that means "<em>other things equal</em>".
As the resources are, per definition, scarce, the consumers, ecomomic agents who buy the products, need to allocate the money among the different goods and services that the market puts at their disposal.
And they allocate the resources in a intelligent way: they "calculate" the utility of each product considering the cost. If the price increase, the ratio of utility to cost decreases and the consumer will diminish the quantity demanded for that good. If the price decrases, the utility to cost ratio increases and the quantity demanded will increase.
