I send you my condolences Lynne. I hope Ray is watching over us all and smiling at our progress. Rest In Peace Ray.

Ok, since 4 amps is flowing through r1, then r2 must have 4 amps, but the 15volts must be split across the 2 sections as the incoming voltage must equal the outgoing. So I would get a parallel circuit. 1/x (since r1 and r2 equal) + 1/200+150 so 1/x +1/350=1/r then I'd multiply that by 4 to get...

Yes, It does but in my textbook, it states that R1 and R2 are 55 ohms and I3 is 0.073 A so trying to figure out how is extremely confusing

The 11.9 is the section of my textbook to which circuit analysis is located but this is very different from the problems there

Heres the question It's number 63

From what I understand is that you can sum up R3 and R4 to get 350 ohms Then you can can a parallel circuit with the missing resistors, 4amp and the new 350 ohm resistor and that's about it. My textbook says the answer is 55 ohms for the resistors and the current is 0.073 but I got 3.75 ohms...
