log(x + 2)
Detail solution

  1. Let u=x+2u = x + 2.

  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+2)\frac{d}{d x} \left(x + 2\right):

    1. Differentiate x+2x + 2 term by term:

      1. Apply the power rule: xx goes to 11

      2. The derivative of the constant 22 is zero.

      The result is: 11

    The result of the chain rule is:

    1x+2\frac{1}{x + 2}

  4. Now simplify:

    1x+2\frac{1}{x + 2}

The answer is:

1x+2\frac{1}{x + 2}
