3 It is often easier to first use the rules of logarithms to expand a logarithmic expression before taking the derivative To do this properly you first must recognize when these rules can be applied and apply them correctly Rules and NonRules for Logarithms ln(ab) ln(a/b) ln(a r ) In A + In B ln(a + B) No rule t 1nA HNB In A In B NO rule ln(a B) t In A r In A (ln A) r No rule # r In A 1h13 Example 6: Differentiate the following functions by first expanding the expressions using the rules for logarithms Explain why this is the better way to proceed in each case (a) f(x) ln p 5x +2 (b) g(x) log 5 (x 2p x + 1) In logs X + 3 In ) tzlogslxtl ),n}t T 4nl H + ) t n±tt5 en Est±en #Fx no u! x Yndiharewnoatdehpaonnsain Example 7: Differentiate f(x) ln x(x 2 + 1) 2 p 2x k LIEGE fl )1nX + z n( 2+ ) tz In (2 45) fk " T + ftpaxzkl#)8x3xt+x4*4/2x4 UAF Calculus I 3 36 Derivatives of Logarithmic Functions
