Apply Chain Rule Derivative: Apply the chain rule to find the derivative of (ln(x))3. The chain rule states that the derivative of a composite function f(g(x)) is f′(g(x))g′(x). In this case, f(u)=u3 and g(x)=ln(x), so we need to find the derivatives f′(u) and g′(x).
Find Derivative of u3: Find the derivative of f(u)=u3 with respect to u. Using the power rule, (dud)(un)=nu(n−1), we get: (dud)(u3)=3u(3−1)=3u2.
Find Derivative of ln(x): Find the derivative of g(x)=ln(x) with respect to x. The derivative of ln(x) with respect to x is x1.
Apply Chain Rule: Apply the chain rule using the derivatives from steps 2 and 3.(dxd)([ln(x)]3)=f′(g(x))g′(x)=3[ln(x)]2⋅(x1).
Simplify Expression: Simplify the expression.(dxd)([ln(x)]3)=x3[ln(x)]2.
