Question

What is the value of resistor R 

**Circuit Analysis**

**Problem Statement:**
Consider the circuit shown in Figure 1. Suppose that \(\Delta V = 7.0 \, \text{V}\).

**Figure Description:**
- The circuit is a series circuit with three resistors.
- The resistors have resistances of \(10 \, \Omega\), \(15 \, \Omega\), and \(R \, \Omega\), respectively.
- The current flowing through the circuit is \(I = 100 \, \text{mA}\).
- The total voltage across the circuit is \(\Delta V = 7.0 \, \text{V}\).
  
The diagram shows a horizontal arrangement of resistors connected in series, with a voltage source on the left. The current direction is indicated as flowing from positive to negative, following the conventional current flow.

**Objective:**
Determine the unknown resistance \(R\) using the given parameters of the circuit.
