Math 11 Derivative of Exponential and Logarithmic Functions

The document discusses the derivatives of exponential and logarithmic functions. It provides examples of finding the derivatives of functions involving natural exponentials ex, natural logarithms ln(x), and exponential/logarithmic functions with bases other than e or natural log. The derivatives follow basic derivative rules such as the constant multiple rule, sum and difference rules, and the derivative of an exponential/logarithmic function being its coefficient times the exponential/logarithmic term.
