Derivative of 2log0,5x

1. The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.

   1. Let $u = 0.5 x$.

   2. The derivative of $\log{\left(u \right)}$ is $\frac{1}{u}$.

   3. Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by $\frac{d}{d x} 0.5 x$:

      1. The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.

         1. Apply the power rule: $x$ goes to $1$

         So, the result is: $0.5$

      The result of the chain rule is:

      $$\frac{1.0}{x}$$

   So, the result is: $\frac{2.0}{x}$

The answer is:

$$\frac{2.0}{x}$$
