(\partial)/(\partial y)(ln(x-7y))

\frac{\partial}{\partial y} (ln (x - 7 y))

- \frac{7}{x - 7 y}

Solution steps

\frac{\partial}{\partial y} (ln (x - 7 y))

Treat

x

as a constant

Apply the chain rule:

\frac{1}{x - 7 y} \frac{\partial}{\partial y} (x - 7 y)

= \frac{1}{x - 7 y} \frac{\partial}{\partial y} (x - 7 y)

\frac{\partial}{\partial y} (x - 7 y) = - 7

= \frac{1}{x - 7 y} (- 7)

Simplify

\frac{1}{x - 7 y} (- 7) : - \frac{7}{x - 7 y}

= - \frac{7}{x - 7 y}

What is (\partial)/(\partial y)(ln(x-7y)) ?
The answer to (\partial)/(\partial y)(ln(x-7y)) is -7/(x-7y)
