Question
**Exercise:**
Given the following electrical circuit, use Kirchhoff's Voltage Law (KVL) and Ohm's Law to find the unknown values of \(i_2\) and \(i_3\).

**Details of the Circuit:**
The circuit includes:
- A 12V voltage source.
- A 4Ω resistor.
- A dependent voltage source providing a voltage of \(2i_2\) volts.
- A 6Ω resistor.
- A 4V voltage source.
- A current \(i\) flowing through the circuit.

**Visual Description:**
The circuit is configured as follows:
1. Starting from the 12V voltage source, the current flows through a 4Ω resistor.
2. After the 4Ω resistor, it reaches a node where a dependent voltage source (\(2i_2\) volts) is connected.
3. Next, the current flows through a 6Ω resistor.
4. After the 6Ω resistor, the current enters a 4V voltage source before completing the loop back to the 12V voltage source.
5. \(i\) is the current flowing in the loop and is indicated by a red arrow pointing clockwise.

**Requirement:**
Calculate \(i_2\) and \(i_3\) using Kirchhoff's Voltage Law (which states that the sum of all voltages in a closed loop must equal zero) and Ohm's Law (which relates voltage, current, and resistance: \( V = IR \)).
