Homework Statement
EDIT: I THINK I FIGURED IT OUT, JUST NEED SOMEONE TO CONFIRM. I think the reason why my mesh analysis is wrong is because there is a voltage drop across the current source. Am I right?
Here is the problem along with my attempt
Find Io using mesh analysis:
Alright so if you look at my second last and last line, i solved for i1 again to verify that my mesh was correct. However as you can see my i1 came out to be 10mA which is not the same as the i1 value that can be found by relating i1 to the 2mA current source (which is -2mA as you can see in the first line). Does anyone know what I am doing wrong? I am using the method that my professor went over in class where if you have a resistor for example in the second last line, you take the resistor and multiply it to the current difference between i3 and i1.
