Dealing with two circuits connected by adjacent inductors

In summary, the problem involves a circuit with three resistors and two inductors. The main question is how to incorporate the third resistor on the right into the typical RL circuit equations. The solution requires knowing the coupling coefficient between the inductors.

Typical RL circuit equations.

The Attempt at a Solution



My main question with this problem is figuring out what to do with the third resistor, the one on the right. Initially, I thought of using RL circuit equations with the left circuit, but I don't know how to adjust that solution for the rightmost resistor. Please help me move past this step, thank you!

Is the coupling coefficient between the two inductors given or inferred somehow? You need to know the coupling coefficient in order to solve this problem, IMO.
