Answer

Junction rule $I_1 - I_2 +I_3 =0$ loop rule loop ABCD $I_1R_1 -7.0V - I_3R_3-3.0 V =0$ Loop BEFC $ I_2R_2 - 5.0 V + I_3R_3 +7.0V =0$

Work Step by Step

Junction rule will apply at B $I_1 - I_2 +I_3 =0$ by Kirchhoff loop rule in loop ABCD $I_1R_1 -7.0V - I_3R_3-3.0 V =0$ in Loop BEFC $ I_2R_2 - 5.0 V + I_3R_3 +7.0V =0$
