How to analyze a circuit with one node using the node method

[Boltzman Oscillation]

Homework Statement

I have the circuit given below with a single node where R3 and ground meet. How can I solve this problem using the inspection method? Is it possible? I can easily solve using another method but I would rather try using the inspection method.

Homework Equations

Ax = M
A is the resistance matrix obtained via inspections
x is the voltage matrix
M is the current matrix

The Attempt at a Solution

Since there is only one node then my resistance matrix, obtained using inspection, will only have one row and one column. Thus in this case:

A = [ 17000]

The voltage matrix will only have my one at the node:

x = [V]

finally the current matrix will have the sum of all the current sources going into the node (subtract those going away):

M = [1mA + 1mA] = [2mA]

I can take the inverse of A and then multiply it by M to get:

x = A^-1 * M
or
V = 2mA/17000
which i believe is the wrong answer. Am I wrong? Can I even solve this using inspection since it is only one node? Thanks.

Since this is nodal analysis you'll want the conductance matrix, not the resistance matrix. Those current sources appear to be 1 Amp each, not one milliamp each.

OMG I totally forgot about that! Thank you Thank you!
