Find the Derivative - d/dx square root of natural log of x
Problem
Solution
Identify the outer and inner functions to apply the chain rule. The expression is of the form
u(1/2) whereu=ln(x) Apply the power rule to the outer square root function. The derivative of
√(,u) is1/(2√(,u)) Apply the chain rule by multiplying the result by the derivative of the inner function,
ln(x) Differentiate the inner function. The derivative of
ln(x) is1/x Simplify the resulting expression by combining the terms into a single fraction.
