The solution

You have entered [src]
log(3*x - 5)
$$\log{\left(3 x - 5 \right)}$$
log(3*x - 5)
Detail solution
  1. Let .

  2. The derivative of is .

  3. Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by :

    1. Differentiate 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: goes to

        So, the result is:

      2. The derivative of the constant is zero.

      The result is:

    The result of the chain rule is:

  4. Now simplify:


The answer is:

The graph
The first derivative [src]
   3   
-------
3*x - 5
$$\frac{3}{3 x - 5}$$
The second derivative [src]
    -9     
-----------
          2
(-5 + 3*x) 
$$- \frac{9}{\left(3 x - 5\right)^{2}}$$
The third derivative [src]
     54    
-----------
          3
(-5 + 3*x) 
$$\frac{54}{\left(3 x - 5\right)^{3}}$$
