2 log (x) - 2*x ------------------ 2 log (x) - 2*log(x)
(log(x)^2 - 2*x)/(log(x)^2 - 2*log(x))
Apply the quotient rule, which is:
and .
To find :
Differentiate term by term:
Let .
Apply the power rule: goes to
Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by :
The derivative of is .
The result of the chain rule is:
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 result is:
