Answer:
The bulb is not powered because the negative end of the battery is not connected to the electric current,making it dysfunctional. The electrons have to flow through the positive and negative ends of the battery in order for it to work.
Hope this helps.
R1 + R4 = 1430 + 1350 = 2780 = R14 series combination of R1 & R4
R2 + R5 = 1350 + 1150 = 2500 = R25
The circuit has been reduced to 3 resistors in parallel
R314 = 2780 * 1100 / (2780 + 1100) = 788 this is the resistance of the parallel combination of R14 and R3
R31425 = 2500 * 788 / (2500 + 788) = 599 which is the equivalent of the circuit - you can also use the formula for 3 resistors in parallel but this seems simpler
Nitrogen and carbon dioxide
