b. from 2005 to 2009, both assets and liabilities increased.
c. from 2005 to 2009, assets decreased and liabilities increased.
d. from 2005 to 2009, assets increased and liabilities decreased.

Answer-

From 2005 to 2009, both assets and liabilities decreased.

Hint-

An asset is something that you own, can provide future economic benefits. e.g Cash, inventory, accounts receivable, land, buildings, etc

A liability is your obligation, either money that must be paid or services that must be performed.

Solution-

Total assets in 2005 = home value + car value = 200,000 + 25,000 = $225,000

Total liabilities in 2005 = car loan + mortgage = $38,000

Total assets in 2009 = home value + car value + boat value = 180,000 + 18,000 + 20,000 = $218,000

Total liabilities in 2009 = home equity loan + personal loan = 18,000 + 5,000 = $23,000

∴ From the calculation, it was obtained that the assets were decreased(as 218,000<225,000) and the liabilities were decreased(as 23,000<38,000).
