Find the Derivative - d/dy e^y

Problem

d(e^y)/d(y)

Solution

1. Identify the function to be differentiated, which is the natural exponential function e^y with respect to its variable y

2. Apply the rule for the derivative of the exponential function, which states that the derivative of e^u with respect to u is e^u

3. Conclude that since the variable of differentiation matches the exponent, no chain rule is required beyond the basic rule.

Final Answer

d(e^y)/d(y)=e^y
