dy/dx=1/(2x)dydx=12x Assuming: x=e^(2y)x=e2y

Explanation:

This queston is somewhat ambigious as is does not state the variable which we are to find the derivitive with respect to.

I will assume: x=e^(2y)x=e2y and that we are seeking dy/dxdydx

x=e^(2y)x=e2y

lnx = 2ylnx=2y

y=1/2lnxy=12lnx

dy/dx = 1/2*1/x = 1/(2x)dydx=121x=12x

NB: If the question was intended to be: d/dy[e^(2y)]ddy[e2y] the result would have been: 2e^(2y)2e2y
