Answer:

Explanation:

The meaning if contributory negligence is a type of law whereby if a plaintiff ( the accuser) has been found to have 10%, fault at cause will gave nothing to recover even if the defendant has 90% at fault.

From the above question, the street crosser as just a little fault to the accident which is crossing the street that is very dangerous without considering the options, whether a car is approaching or not and the defendant has about 95% fault because if he was driving at a controlled speed, there is every chance that he would have controlled the situation. But been the fact that state B is a contributory negligence state, based on my explanation of negligence state, it is possible for the defendant to win the case. As a lawyer I will advise the driver to go on with his defense that the plantif is more at fault.

Mercantilism was an economic system used by European powers from the 16th to the 18th centuries. This system was responsible for generating wealth to national powers while colonies were being strongly explored. According to the British theory of mercantilism, the colonies should be carefully controlled in order to support the metropole's needs. Thus, taxing colonial goods at a higher rate than the same goods produced in Britain was a mercantilist strategy found that served the home country's needs and harmed the colonial economy at the same time.
