OpenStudy (anonymous):

You need logarithmic differentiation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I will start you off

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y = x^(3x+1) Take the log of both sides, you get log y = (3x+1) log(x)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Take the derivative of both sides (keep in mind that for the right side, you need the product rule)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So, (1/y)(y') = (3x+1)/x + 3 log(x)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Multiply both sides by y becuase we wany y')
