log\y  - 1/

$$\log{\left(y^{2} - 1 \right)}$$

log(y^2 - 1)

Detail solution

Let $u = y^{2} - 1$ .
The derivative of $\log{\left(u \right)}$ is $\frac{1}{u}$ .
Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by $\frac{d}{d y} \left(y^{2} - 1\right)$ :
1. Differentiate $y^{2} - 1$ term by term:
  1. Apply the power rule: $y^{2}$ goes to $2 y$
  2. The derivative of the constant $-1$ is zero.
  The result is: $2 y$
The result of the chain rule is:

$\frac{2 y}{y^{2} - 1}$
Now simplify:

$\frac{2 y}{y^{2} - 1}$

The answer is:

$\frac{2 y}{y^{2} - 1}$
