x -------*log(3*x) 2*x - 1
(x/(2*x - 1))*log(3*x)
Apply the quotient rule, which is:
and .
To find :
Apply the product rule:
; to find :
Apply the power rule: goes to
; to find :
Let .
The derivative of is .
Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by :
The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.
Apply the power rule: goes to
So, the result is:
The result of the chain rule is:
The result is:
To find :
Differentiate term by term:
The derivative of the constant is zero.
The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.
Apply the power rule: goes to
So, the result is:
The result is:
Now plug in to the quotient rule:
Now simplify:
The answer is:
