Combine like terms first.
7p+8p=15p
15p-12=59
Now add 12 from both sides.
15p=71
Now divide both sides by 15.
p=4.7333333333

Hope this helps!

Hello, lets solve this!

$\sf 7p+8p-12=59\\\\\sf Add~like~terms}\\\\15p - 12=59\\\\Add~12~on~both~sides\\\\15p -12 + 12 = 59 + 12\\\\15p = 71\\\\Divide~15~on~both~sides\\\\\boxed{\bf{p = \frac{71}{15} = 4.73333333}}$

Hope I helped! If you have any other qestions or would like further explantion just let me know!! :)

Limit question: lim x-->pi ((e^sinx)-1)/(x-pi)

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to\pi}\dfrac{e^{\sin x}-1}{x-\pi}$

Notice that if $f(x)=e^{\sin x}$ , then $f(\pi)=e^{\sin\pi}=e^0=1$ . Recall the definition of the derivative of a function $f(x)$ at a point $x=c$ :

$f'(c):=\displaystyle\lim_{x\to c}\frac{f(x)-f(c)}{x-c}$

So the value of this limit is exactly the value of the derivative of $f(x)=e^{\sin x}$ at $x=\pi$ .

You have

$f'(x)=\cos x\,e^{\sin x}\implies f'(\pi)=\cos\pi\,e^{\sin\pi}=-1$
