I want to find derivative of following function defined in proper domain w.r.t x

$$ e^{3x} \log{2x} $$

    Do you mean $e^{3x}\log (2x$)? If so, you need braces around the $3x$ to make the $x$ come out in the exponent. Or is it $\log_2 (x)$?2011-05-16

    In any case of the problem, do you know the multiplication and chain rules for derivatives?2011-05-16

    Please write this in question form, not in request form.2011-05-16

Use the product rule which says that if $f$ and $g$ are differentiable functions then $(f(x)g(x))' = f(x) \cdot g'(x) + g(x) \cdot f'(x)$ and note that the derivative of $e^{ax}= ae^{ax}$ for some $a \neq 0$ and derivative of $\log{x}$ is $\frac{1}{x}$
