Homework Equations
V=IR, P=VI
The Attempt at a Solution
I tried using superposition, where I replaced one battery with a short and solved for the voltage and current through the 6 ohm resistor, and the did the same by replacing the other battery with a short. The total current and voltage is the sum of the individual values. I plugged those final values into P=VI and got the wrong answer. Should this method work and I just did the work wrong or is there something I'm not aware of?
