Suppose i have the function f of x, which is ln of 1 plus e to the 2x.
00:05
Before we jump into this, let's just review the derivative rules.
00:08
What's the derivative of just a basic ln of x? well, the derivative of ln of x is just 1 over what's inside of ln, which is x.
00:16
If i had anything other than x inside of the logarithm, then i would use chain rule and multiply by the derivative of the inside to the numerator.
00:25
What's the derivative of the exponential function? well, pretty easy to remember the derivative.
00:30
Of the exponential function is just itself.
00:33
And of course, if there's anything other than x in the exponent, i would multiply the derivative of the exponent by using the chain rule.
00:39
Okay, so derivative of this function, my outer function is ln, so derivative of ln is 1 over what's inside of ln, 1 plus e to 2x, times the derivative of the inside to the numerator, derivative of e to the 2x is e to the 2x, times the exponent of e to the 2x is 2...
