Title: What is the derivative of a constant raised to a function? Post by: tommyq on Sep 25, 2012 For example, if I had 2^(3x) then what would be its derivative?
By the way, I know that the derivative of 2^x is Ln(2) x 2^x Title: What is the derivative of a constant raised to a function? Post by: lester on Sep 25, 2012 D(2^3x)=3 ln2 * 2^3x

Title: Re: What is the derivative of a constant raised to a function? Post by: riojamsushi on Sep 26, 2012 f(x) = a^u
f'(x) = (a^u) ln(a) (du/dx) f(x) = 2^(3x) f'(x) = (2^(3x)) ln(2) (3) |
