derivate (2x)^x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\large (2x)^x=e^{\ln(2x)^x}=e^{x\ln2x}\] Use the chain rule now: \[\frac{d}{dx}[e^{x\ln2x}]=e^{x\ln2x}\frac{d}{dx}[x\ln2x]\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the answer is xln2x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[(2x)^xln2x\] is this right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Close, you're missing one term. Recall the product rule: \[\frac{d}{dx}[x\ln2x]=\frac{d}{dx}[x]\ln2x+x\frac{d}{dx}[\ln2x]\]
