Since the arrangement is symmteric about the centralmost point, the current passing from the two5\Omegaand10\Omegaresistors can be considered to be equal.

From Kirchoff’s voltage law,

1.V-5i_1-10i_2=0
2.10i_2-5i_1-5(i_1-i_2)=0

Solving the two equations givesi_1=\dfrac{3}{35}Vandi_2=\dfrac{2}{35}V
HenceV=7(i_1+i_2)

ButV=R_{eq}(i_1+i_2)
\implies R_{eq}=7\Omega
