The diagram below shows a circuit where R1=4 Ω, R2=6 Ω, R3=5 Ω, V1=6 Volts, V2=10 Volts, and V3=7 Volts. What is the value of I1? In solving this problem, initially pick the current directions as shown. If the actual current turns out to be in the opposite direction, then your answer will be negative. If you get a negative number, enter it as negative. I can get the equations of: I1R1+V1-I2R2+V2= 0 -V2+I2R2-V1-I3R3+V3=0 I1+I2+I3 = 0 But I dont understand how to take these equations and solve for I1. Can you please do it step by step?
