Derivative of logarithmic functions

In the previous chapter, it was stated that

when x > 0.

Since these are the same function, their derivative is the same

This gives the derivative of the logarithmic function

Example 3

Differentiate

First, change the base number to the natural logarithm

Now we can differentiate

In general, the derivative of a logarithmic function is
