Homework Statement
A) What is the current flowing through Resistor 1?
B) What is the voltage drop across Resistor 2?
C) What is the current flowing through Resistor 9?
D) What is the equivalent resistance for Resistors 5, 7, and 8?
Relevant Equations
V = I*R, Series Connections add.

It seems as though i1 and i9 are in series with the current source. That's my reasoning for the answers a and c.
For b, it appears as though there's still an unbroken series connection which just leaves V = I * R.

I put question marks because I don't know if they're right or not; there's no way for me to check.

Thanks for your time.
