Homework Statement
http://www.wifstrand.se/Albert/stuff/p6.5-9.png
I'm stuck with finding v_o1 (voltage over the 10kohm resistor when all sources but the 3 V source, which I've labeled v_1, is set to zero); seems like it should be really simple but I'm missing an equation.
Homework Equations

Nodal analysis for this figure gives
(v_a - 3)/8000 + (v_a - v_o1)/24000 = 0
The Attempt at a Solution
I have two unknown variables but I can't figure out what the second equation would be. The answer given in the initial problem statement suggests that v_a = 2 V and v_o1 = -1 (since a_1 = v_01 * v_1 = (-1) * 3 = -3) which satisfies the equation above but naturally I'd like to know what I'd need to solve it.
I can see that v_a - v_01 - 3 = 2 - (-1) - 3 = 0 but I'm not sure how to find that expression systematically and if it corresponds to KVL somehow.
