Hey guys so the question is

differentiate this:

3^x all over x

I solved it using quotient rule and I got 3^x(x-1) all over x^2 but the answers 3^x(xIn3 - 1) all over x^2.

How did the log come into place???

:confused::cook::pirate::shoot::cool2::angel:

thx as always

Do you know how to differentiate a^x, where a is NOT equal to e?
