Math Problem Statement

d/dx = e^2x

Solution

You are asking to compute the derivative of e2xe^{2x} with respect to xx. To solve this, we can apply the chain rule for differentiation.

Let’s compute the derivative step by step:

ddx(e2x)\frac{d}{dx} \left( e^{2x} \right)

The chain rule tells us to differentiate the outer function (the exponential) and then multiply by the derivative of the inner function (the exponent). In this case:

  1. The derivative of e2xe^{2x} is e2xe^{2x} (because the derivative of an exponential function is the function itself).
  2. Now, multiply by the derivative of 2x2x, which is 2.

So, the full derivative is:

ddx(e2x)=2e2x\frac{d}{dx} \left( e^{2x} \right) = 2e^{2x}

Would you like more details, or do you have any further questions?

Here are 5 related questions:

  1. What is the derivative of e3xe^{3x}?
  2. How do you apply the chain rule to ex2e^{x^2}?
  3. What is the second derivative of e2xe^{2x}?
  4. How do you compute the derivative of e2x+1e^{2x + 1}?
  5. How would you differentiate exe^{-x}?

Tip: When differentiating exponential functions with non-trivial exponents, always remember to apply the chain rule correctly.
