In the diagram, three currents x, y and z are flowing in a circuit. The current y is 1 amp less than twice the current x. The current z is 2 ampere more than the current y. The total current x, y and z is 15 amperes. How many amperes is current x?

Answer:

3 A

Step-by-step explanation:

Current X = x

current Y = 2x -1

current Z = y + 2 = 2x - 1 + 2 = 2x + 1  

Here, x + y +  z = 15

x + 2 x - 1 + 2 x + 1 = 15

5 x = 15

x = 3 A

So, the current in x is 3 A.
