Let .
The derivative of is .
Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by :
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.
So, the result is:
The result is:
The result of the chain rule is:
Now simplify:
The answer is:
x
-2 *log(2)
-----------
x
