Transcribed Image Text:The four resistors in the figure have an equivalent resistance of 182. The resistances are as follows: R₁ = 129, R₂ = 2.0, and R3 = 6.02. Calculate the value of Rx. Rx = Ω R₁ R₂ _[www] w in win R₂
Expert Solution
Step 1

Given data 

equivalent resistance R=18 ohm

R1=12 ohmR2=2.0 ohm R3=6.0 ohm

We can see that the last two resistances R2 and R3  are in series.

so their equivalent R23=R2+R3=2.0+6.0=8.0 ohm
