Use the diagram above to calculate the current, I.

A.

0.60A

B.

0.97A

C.

1.03A

D.

5.00A

Correct answer is B

\(\frac{1}{R} = \frac{1}{R_1} + \frac{1}{R_2}\)

= \(\frac{1}{6} + \frac{1}{4}\)

R = \(\frac{12}{5} = 2.5\Omega\)

R = 2.4 + 10 = 12.4

V = IR

I = \(\frac{v}{R} = \frac{12}{12.4} = 0.97\)
