Question

Find the derivative of y = log18(5t + 2t)

Answer 1

log ( 18(5t + 2t) )?
or base 18?

Answer 2

log18 then (5t+2^t) my bad

Answer 3

do you get what it is now lol

Answer 4

my first step would be use change-of-base to get a natural log / base e

\[ log_{a}(x) = \frac{ln(x)}{ln(a)} \]

y = ln (5t+2^t) / ln (18)

Derivative of ln(x) is 1/x, the derivative of 2^t is ln(2) 2*t
should just be chain rule from there
