Node 1:
I1=I2+I3 And,
I1=5, I2= V1/10, (V1-V2)/3 On substituting we get,
5 = V1/10 + (V2+V3)/3
150 = 13V1- 10V2 $\hspace{2cm}$ ……. (1)
Node 2:
I3 + I5 =I4
And,
I3 = (V1-V2)/3, I5 = (10¬-V2)/1, I4=V2/5
On substituting we get,
(V1-V2)/3 + (10¬-V2)/1 = V2/5
5V1-23V2=-150 $\hspace{2cm}$ …… (2)
On solving eq 1 and 2 simultaneously we get,
V2= 10.84Volts.
V1= 19.88Volts.
Since,
I3 = (V1-V2)/3
I3 = (19.88-10.84)/3
I3 = 3.013A ($\rightarrow$)
