Detail solution

  1. Let u=2x2−3u = 2 x^{2} - 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(2x2−3)\frac{d}{d x} \left(2 x^{2} - 3\right):

    1. Differentiate 2x2−32 x^{2} - 3 term by term:

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

        1. Apply the power rule: x2x^{2} goes to 2x2 x

        So, the result is: 4x4 x

      2. The derivative of the constant (−1)3\left(-1\right) 3 is zero.

      The result is: 4x4 x

    The result of the chain rule is:

    4x2x2−3\frac{4 x}{2 x^{2} - 3}

  4. Now simplify:

    4x2x2−3\frac{4 x}{2 x^{2} - 3}

The answer is:

4x2x2−3\frac{4 x}{2 x^{2} - 3}
