do you think I can solve for v, I1, and I2?

Hi

Please have a look on the attachment. Do you think I can solve for v, I1 and I2? I know there are simpler ways to do but I'm interested doing it this way. So, please help me. Thank you.

Regards

PG,

You sure do make things confusing. Why are there two pairs of signs for voltage "v"? Why does I1 and I2 show circulation across the open circuit?

I interpreted it as I1 = I2 and 8Ω across 6 V. In other words, the current "loops" are mis-drawn and are intended to show only the current through the respective resistors, as of course there is no current across an open circuit. If that is not the case, please clarify the drawing.
