/ x x\ log\8 + 2 / ------------ log(4)
log(8^x + 2^x)/log(4)
The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.
Let .
The derivative of is .
Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by :
Differentiate term by term:
The result is:
The result of the chain rule is:
So, the result is:
Now simplify:
The answer is:
