Your Input

Find ddu(ln(u))\frac{d}{du} \left(\ln\left(u\right)\right).

Solution

The derivative of the natural logarithm is ddu(ln(u))=1u\frac{d}{du} \left(\ln\left(u\right)\right) = \frac{1}{u}:

(ddu(ln(u)))=(1u){\color{red}\left(\frac{d}{du} \left(\ln\left(u\right)\right)\right)} = {\color{red}\left(\frac{1}{u}\right)}

Thus, ddu(ln(u))=1u\frac{d}{du} \left(\ln\left(u\right)\right) = \frac{1}{u}.

Answer

ddu(ln(u))=1u\frac{d}{du} \left(\ln\left(u\right)\right) = \frac{1}{u}A
