\frac{d}{d x} (x ln (\frac{x}{4}))

ln (\frac{x}{4}) + 1

Solution steps

\frac{d}{d x} (x ln (\frac{x}{4}))

Apply the Product Rule:

(f \cdot g)^{'} = f^{'} \cdot g + f \cdot g^{'}

f = x, g = ln (\frac{x}{4})

= \frac{d x}{d x} ln (\frac{x}{4}) + \frac{d}{d x} (ln (\frac{x}{4})) x

\frac{d x}{d x} = 1

\frac{d}{d x} (ln (\frac{x}{4})) = \frac{1}{x}

= 1 \cdot ln (\frac{x}{4}) + \frac{1}{x} x

Simplify

1 \cdot ln (\frac{x}{4}) + \frac{1}{x} x : ln (\frac{x}{4}) + 1

= ln (\frac{x}{4}) + 1
