(\partial)/(\partial x)(2ln(xy))

\frac{\partial}{\partial x} (2 ln (x y))

\frac{2}{x}

Solution steps

\frac{\partial}{\partial x} (2 ln (x y))

Treat

y

as a constant

Take the constant out:

(a \cdot f)^{'} = a \cdot f^{'}

= 2 \frac{\partial}{\partial x} (ln (x y))

Apply the chain rule:

\frac{1}{x y} \frac{\partial}{\partial x} (x y)

= \frac{1}{x y} \frac{\partial}{\partial x} (x y)

\frac{\partial}{\partial x} (x y) = y

= 2 \cdot \frac{1}{x y} y

Simplify

2 \cdot \frac{1}{x y} y : \frac{2}{x}

= \frac{2}{x}
