How do you differentiate y = log_3 [((x+1)/(x-1))^ln3]? Calculus Differentiating Logarithmic Functions Differentiating Logarithmic Functions without Base e 1 Answer A. S. Adikesavan Aug 28, 2016 2/(1-x^2) Explanation: Use log_ba=ln a/ln b, ln c^n = n ln c and ln(m/s)=ln m - ln n Here, y=log_3[((x+1)/(x-1))^ln 3] =ln((x+1)/(x-1))^ln 3/ln 3 =ln 3 ln[(x+1)/(x-1)]/ln 3 =ln(x+1)-ln(x-1) y'=1/(x+1)(x+1)'-1/(x-1)(x-1)'# =1/(x+1)(1)-1/(x-1)(1) =((x-1)-(x+1))/((x+1)(x-1)) =2/(1-x^2) Answer link Related questions What is the derivative of f(x)=log_b(g(x)) ?
