Find the Derivative - d/dx y=x^3 natural log of x

Problem

d()/d(x)*x3*ln(x)

Solution

  1. Identify the rule needed for the expression, which is the product of two functions: u=x3 and v=ln(x)

  2. Apply the product rule formula, which states that d()/d(x)*u*v=ud(v)/d(x)+vd(u)/d(x)

  3. Differentiate the individual components: d(x3)/d(x)=3*x2 and d(ln(x))/d(x)=1/x

  4. Substitute these derivatives back into the product rule formula.

(d(x3)*ln(x))/d(x)=x3⋅1/x+ln(x)⋅3*x2

  1. Simplify the resulting expression by performing the multiplication and factoring.

(d(x3)*ln(x))/d(x)=x2+3*x2*ln(x)

  1. Factor out the common term x2

(d(x3)*ln(x))/d(x)=x2*(1+3*ln(x))

Final Answer

(d(x3)*ln(x))/d(x)=x2*(1+3*ln(x))
