Using Nodal analysis,

At node 1 -> v1/120 - 0.2 + (v1-v2/68) =0.
At node 2 -> (v2- v1)/68 + 0.04 = 0.
Thus solving simultaneously v1 and v2 equations we get v1= 19.2.
And so, at r2, I = 19.2/120 = 0.16.

Adding of two current sources but symbols are different

So. 0.2 -0.04 = 0.16

Apply SUPERPOSITION THEOREM and solve it easily.

(i) Response due to Is1 is obtained by O.C. the Is2.
Which is equal to i1=+0.2A.

(ii) Response due to Source 2 is obtained by O.C, the source 1.
Which is equal to i2= -0.04A (* - sign to current direction in opposite to the source 1).

Complete response due to both source is obtained by SUPERPOSITION THEOREM.

i = i1+i2.
i = 0.2-0.04A.
i = 0.16A.

According to source transformation concept, the resistance R2 will
dummy resistance, because it is in series with the current source which is always determined as short ckt,.

Now both current source will be parallel to each other with opposite direction thus we get,

Current through R1 = (200*10^-3)-(40*10^-3).
= 160*10^-3.

Just apply node analysis at node A.
Incoming currents = outgoing current.

I = I1+I2 now,
I1 = I-I2.
I1 = 0.2-0.04 = 0.16 amp.

Just apply..KCL.

we get 0.2 = 0.04+Ir1.

Ir1=0.16A.

From nodal analysis

(V/R1)-Is1+Is2=0

(V/R1)-0.2+0.04=0;

(v/R1)-0.16=0

required (V/R1)=0.16A;

In other branch= I(s1)-I(s2)

We will apply kcl at node 1 we will get voltage than divide by 120.
