Find Vo and Ix via superposition. Please give step by step explaning the work.

The image depicts an electrical circuit diagram with the following components:

1. **Voltage Source**: 
   - A 6V voltage source is on the left side of the circuit.

2. **Resistors**:
   - A 6 kΩ resistor is connected in series with the voltage source.
   - A 2 kΩ resistor is connected in parallel following the 6 kΩ resistor, through which a current \( I_x \) flows.
   - A 4 kΩ resistor is connected to the right of the circuit in series with the 3 mA current source.
   - Another 4 kΩ resistor is connected in series with the last resistor and the voltage output \( V_o \).

3. **Dependent Voltage Source**:
   - A dependent voltage source labeled \( 2000I_x \) is positioned above, controlled by the current \( I_x \) flowing through the 2 kΩ resistor. The polarity is indicated with a negative sign on top and a positive sign below.

4. **Current Source**:
   - A 3 mA current source is directly connected to the 4 kΩ resistors, directing current up through the circuit.

5. **Output Voltage**:
   - The voltage output \( V_o \) is shown across the far right of the circuit.

This is labeled as Figure P5.70.

The circuit showcases a combination of independent and dependent sources, and resistors arranged in a mixed parallel and series configuration, demonstrating principles of circuit analysis for educational purposes.
