    Derivatives of natural numbers

    1. I was trying to understand the proof of (d/dx) b^x = (ln b)*(b^x) it says: b= e^(ln b) so, b^x= e^((ln b)*x)) So now we use the chain rule: (d/dx) b^x = (d/dx) e^((ln b)*x)) I understand everything so far, but not the next step. It says then that (d/dx) e^((ln b)*x))= (ln...
