$$2 \log{\left(5 y - 4 \right)}$$
2*log(5*y - 4)
Detail solution
  1. The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.

    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:

    So, the result is:

  2. Now simplify:


The answer is:

The graph
The first derivative [src]
   10  
-------
5*y - 4
$$\frac{10}{5 y - 4}$$
The second derivative [src]
    -50    
-----------
          2
(-4 + 5*y) 
$$- \frac{50}{\left(5 y - 4\right)^{2}}$$
The third derivative [src]
    500    
-----------
          3
(-4 + 5*y) 
$$\frac{500}{\left(5 y - 4\right)^{3}}$$
