The answer is:

The graph
The first derivative [src]
2*log(x + 3)
------------
   x + 3    
$$\frac{2 \log{\left(x + 3 \right)}}{x + 3}$$
The second derivative [src]
2*(1 - log(3 + x))
------------------
            2     
     (3 + x)      
$$\frac{2 \left(1 - \log{\left(x + 3 \right)}\right)}{\left(x + 3\right)^{2}}$$
The third derivative [src]
2*(-3 + 2*log(3 + x))
---------------------
              3      
       (3 + x)       
$$\frac{2 \left(2 \log{\left(x + 3 \right)} - 3\right)}{\left(x + 3\right)^{3}}$$
