What is the derivative of 5^(3x)? Calculus Basic Differentiation Rules Chain Rule 1 Answer Jim H Mar 2, 2018 Please see below. Explanation: d/dx(a^x) = a^x lna So, d/dx(a^u) = (a^u lna) (du)/dx So d/dx(5^(3x)) = (5^(3x) ln5) (3) = 3(5^(3x))ln5 Answer link Related questions What is the Chain Rule for derivatives?
