Detail solution
  1. Let u=log(x+3)u = \log{\left(x + 3 \right)}.

  2. Apply the power rule: u2u^{2} goes to 2u2 u

  3. Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by ddxlog(x+3)\frac{d}{d x} \log{\left(x + 3 \right)}:

    1. Let u=x+3u = x + 3.

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

    3. Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by ddx(x+3)\frac{d}{d x} \left(x + 3\right):

      1. Differentiate x+3x + 3 term by term:

        1. Apply the power rule: xx goes to 11

        2. The derivative of the constant 33 is zero.

        The result is: 11

      The result of the chain rule is:

      1x+3\frac{1}{x + 3}

    The result of the chain rule is:

    2log(x+3)x+3\frac{2 \log{\left(x + 3 \right)}}{x + 3}

  4. Now simplify:

    2log(x+3)x+3\frac{2 \log{\left(x + 3 \right)}}{x + 3}


The answer is:

2log(x+3)x+3\frac{2 \log{\left(x + 3 \right)}}{x + 3}
