log(2*y)/2
Detail solution
  1. The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.

    1. Let u=2yu = 2 y.

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

    3. Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by ddy2y\frac{d}{d y} 2 y:

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

        1. Apply the power rule: yy goes to 11

        So, the result is: 22

      The result of the chain rule is:

      1y\frac{1}{y}

    So, the result is: 12y\frac{1}{2 y}


The answer is:

12y\frac{1}{2 y}
