Best Answer

In this case, you need to apply the chain rule. Note that the derivative of ln N = 1/N. In that case we get:

f(x) = ln(1 - x)

∴ f'(x) = 1/(1 - x) × -1

∴ f'(x) = -1/(1 - x)

What is the third derivative of lnx?

The first derivative of ln x is 1/x, which (for the following) you better write as x-1.Now use the power rule:Second derivative (the derivative of the first derivative) is -1x-2, the third derivative is the derivative of this, or 2x-3. You may now wish to write this in the alternative form, as 2 / x3.

How do you do exponential functions?

The derivative of e^u(x) with respect to x: [du/dx]*[e^u(x)]For a general exponential: b^x, can be rewritten as b^x = e^(x*ln(b))So derivative of b^x = derivative of e^u(x), where u(x) = x*ln(b).Derivative of x*ln(b) = ln(b). {remember b is just a constant, so ln(b) is a constant}So derivative of b^x = ln(b)*e^(x*ln(b))= ln(b) * b^x(from above)

What is the Derivative of 500 ln x plus 1?

the derivative of ln x = x'/x; the derivative of 1 is 0 so the answer is 500(1/x)+0 = 500/x


What is the derivative of ln 1?

It is equal to 0


What is the derivative of ln x to the power of 2?

If the function is (ln x)2, then the chain rules gives us the derivative 2ln(x)/x, with the x in the denominator. If the function is ln (x2), then the chain rule gives us the derivative 2/x.


What is the derivative of e the the power ln x?

y = e^ln x using the fact that e to the ln x is just x, and the derivative of x is 1: y = x y' = 1


What is the derivative of?

ln(3) is a constant. If graphed, it would be a horizontal line. Its derivative is zero.


What is the derivative of 2 to the power of x?

if f(x)=kx, f'(x)=ln(k)*kx. Therefore, the derivative of 2x is ln(2)*2x.


What is the derivative of e to the power ln x squared?

e^[ln(x^2)]=x^2, so your question is really, "What is the derivative of x^2," to which the answer is 2x.
