### Circuit Analysis Problem

**Problem Statement:**

Calculate the component voltages and branch currents for the circuit shown in Figure 6.41, along with the values of \(I_T\) and \(R_T\).

**Circuit Description:**

- **Voltage Source (\(V_S\)):** 18 V
- **Resistors:**
  - \(R_1 = 3.3 \, \text{k}\Omega\)
  - \(R_2 = 2.2 \, \text{k}\Omega\)
  - \(R_3 = 12 \, \text{k}\Omega\)
  - \(R_4 = 1 \, \text{k}\Omega\)
  - \(R_5 = 1.5 \, \text{k}\Omega\)
  - \(R_6 = 7.5 \, \text{k}\Omega\)

**Diagram Explanation:**

The circuit diagram illustrates a parallel resistor network connected to an 18 V voltage source. The resistors \(R_1\) and \(R_2\) form the first branch, \(R_3\) and \(R_4\) form the second branch, and \(R_5\) and \(R_6\) form the third branch. Calculate the component voltages across each set of resistors and the current through each branch, as well as the total current \(I_T\) and total resistance \(R_T\) of the circuit.
