Let .
Apply the power rule: goes to
Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by :
Let .
The derivative of is .
Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by :
Differentiate term by term:
The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.
Apply the power rule: goes to
So, the result is:
The derivative of the constant is zero.
The result is:
The result of the chain rule is:
The result of the chain rule is:
Now simplify:
The answer is:
6*log(3*x + 5) -------------- 3*x + 5
18*(1 - log(5 + 3*x)) --------------------- 2 (5 + 3*x)
54*(-3 + 2*log(5 + 3*x)) ------------------------ 3 (5 + 3*x)
