Differentiate the following functions with respect to x :

ex log x

Let y = ex log x


Taking log both the sides:


log y = log (e)x log x


log y = x log x log e {log xa = alog x}


log y = x log x {log e = 1}


Differentiating with respect to x:









Put ex log x :



{ elog a = a; alog x = xa}
