Question Completion:

Note: This is a Law question, not Mathematics.

Decision:

Edwards and Davis are not personally liable for the debts of EEE, Inc.

Step-by-step explanation:

That Edwin Edwards and Karen Davis owned EEE Inc. does not force them to be personally liable for the debts of EEE Inc.  EEE Inc. is a separate legal entity.  There is the legal separation of ownership and the liabilities of Edwards and Davis are limited to the capital they contributed or undertook to contribute to the corporation.  The corporate veil is only lifted when it is ascertained that EEE Inc. was not run as a legal entity separate from the owners.  We can also conclude that there is no evidence of abuse of the corporate form of EEE Inc. with comingling of assets or for the purpose of promoting fraud or injustice or evasion of tort or contractual responsibility on the part of Edwards and Davis.  Therefore, Edwin Edwards and Karen Davis are not personally liable for the debts of EEE Inc. as claimed by Reid Ellis.

b) 36

step-by-step explanation:

18 times 2 is 36

d, x=8

step-by-step explanation:

simplifying

4x + -5 = 2x + 11

reorder the terms:

-5 + 4x = 2x + 11

reorder the terms:

-5 + 4x = 11 + 2x

solving

-5 + 4x = 11 + 2x

solving for variable 'x'.

move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

add '-2x' to each side of the equation.

-5 + 4x + -2x = 11 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 4x + -2x = 2x

-5 + 2x = 11 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0

-5 + 2x = 11 + 0

-5 + 2x = 11

add '5' to each side of the equation.

-5 + 5 + 2x = 11 + 5

combine like terms: -5 + 5 = 0

0 + 2x = 11 + 5

2x = 11 + 5

combine like terms: 11 + 5 = 16

2x = 16

divide each side by '2'.
