sqrt(x)*log(x)
Detail solution
  1. Apply the product rule:

    ddxf(x)g(x)=f(x)ddxg(x)+g(x)ddxf(x)\frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)} g{\left(x \right)} = f{\left(x \right)} \frac{d}{d x} g{\left(x \right)} + g{\left(x \right)} \frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)}

    f(x)=xf{\left(x \right)} = \sqrt{x}; to find ddxf(x)\frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)}:

    1. Apply the power rule: x\sqrt{x} goes to 12x\frac{1}{2 \sqrt{x}}

    g(x)=log(x)g{\left(x \right)} = \log{\left(x \right)}; to find ddxg(x)\frac{d}{d x} g{\left(x \right)}:

    1. The derivative of log(x)\log{\left(x \right)} is 1x\frac{1}{x}.

    The result is: log(x)2x+1x\frac{\log{\left(x \right)}}{2 \sqrt{x}} + \frac{1}{\sqrt{x}}

  2. Now simplify:

    log(x)+22x\frac{\log{\left(x \right)} + 2}{2 \sqrt{x}}


The answer is:

log(x)+22x\frac{\log{\left(x \right)} + 2}{2 \sqrt{x}}
