Question

Use supermesh analysis to determine the nobe voltage 

The image illustrates an electrical circuit diagram consisting of various components:

1. **Resistors**:
   - A 5-ohm resistor is present on the left side.
   - A 4-ohm resistor follows the 5-ohm one.
   - A 6-ohm resistor is located near the right side.

2. **Voltage Source**:
   - There is a 5V voltage source connected with the positive sign on top and negative on the bottom.
   - A 3V voltage source is on the far right, with the positive sign on top.

3. **Dependent Source**:
   - A dependent current source is represented by a diamond shape, denoted as \(0.5V_x\), where \(V_x\) is the voltage across the 5-ohm resistor.

In this circuit, the voltage \(V_x\) is across the 5-ohm resistor, indicating the voltage drop along that component. The dependent current source is regulated by this voltage \(V_x\), multiplying it by 0.5 to determine the current it provides. The arrangement of components shows a series-parallel configuration.
