Hi
I want to know is it possible to differentiate exp and log functions where bases are functions not constants?How?
Thanks

Remember that:

1. [tex]a^{b}=e^{b\ln(a)}[/tex]
and

2.[tex]log_{a}(b)=\frac{\ln(b)}{\ln(a)}[/tex]

Use these rules in the appropriate manner in order to differentiate the expressions you asked about!
