Question

How do I start this problem?
d/dx [e^-x ln(x + 1)]

Answer 1

Well you have 2 functions being multiplied and you want the derivative...sounds like a product rule here

Answer 2

\[\large \frac{d}{dx}(u,v) = \frac{du}{dx}v + \frac{dv}{dx}u\]

Letting u = e^-x and v = ln(x + 1)

Answer 3

ok. thank you
