Homework Statement
Find the domain and the first derivative of 2[arctan(e^x)]
Homework Equations
d/dx arctan(x)= 1/(1+x^2)
The Attempt at a Solution
I'm not sure about the domain...
For the derivative:
d/dx 2[arctan(e^x)] = 2 [1/(1+e^x)^2] (e^x)
But my teacher had the same answer excluding the e^x part. Isn't there supposed to be the e^x there since it is the derivative of the inside function?
