Topics in Differentiation Of Exponential and Logarithmic Functions

1

Derivatives of Exponential Functions

  • The derivative of \( e^x \) is \( e^x \).
  • For \( e^{f(x)} \), use chain rule: derivative is \( e^{f(x)} \cdot f'(x) \).
  • Derivative of \( a^x \) is \( a^x \log a \), where \( a > 0 \).
2

Derivatives of Logarithmic Functions

  • The derivative of \( \log x \) is \( \frac{1}{x} \).
  • For \( \log(f(x)) \), derivative is \( \frac{1}{f(x)} \cdot f'(x) \).
  • Use logarithmic differentiation for functions of the form \( [f(x)]^{g(x)} \).
3

Second Order Derivatives

  • Second derivative is the derivative of the first derivative.
  • Denoted as \( \frac{d^2y}{dx^2} \) or \( f''(x) \).
  • Used to determine concavity and acceleration in physical applications.
