Question

How do you find the derivative of ln(x+6)

Answer 1

do you know the derivative of lnx ?

Answer 2

If You Don't* : Derivative of lnx= (1/x)*(derivative of x)
example:
Find derivative of ln2x
d(ln2x)/dx = (1/2x)*d(2x)/dx = (1/2x)*2===>1/x

Answer 3

Step 1: Find the derivative of ln(x+6)
hint: treat it as ln(x)
Step 2: then multiply by the derivative of inside of the parenthesis
.... this last step shouldn't matter much though

Answer 4

So would it be 6/x?

Answer 5

no, do you know the chain rule?
