You can only differentiate logs if it is to the base e. and then you just put the derivative of the logged bit over the logged bit. For example, y=ln 2x, y'=2/2x=1/x.ben said:hey can anyone xplain how to differentiate logs and exponentials for me? i kinda don't understand it. e.g 2^x
thanks

For differentiating exponentials of e, you times the derivative of e by f(x). e.g. f(x)=e2x
f'(x)=2f(x)
=2e2x

Let y=x^xdifferentiate x^x
