The derivative of the natural logarithm of a function is equal to the derivative of the function divided by that function. If $f(x)=ln\:a$ (where $a$ is a function of $x$), then $\displaystyle f'(x)=\frac{a'}{a}$

The derivative of the natural logarithm of a function is equal to the derivative of the function divided by that function. If f(x)=ln\:a (where a is a function of x), then \displaystyle f'(x)=\frac{a'}{a}. Apply the quotient rule for differentiation, which states that if f(x) and g(x) are functions and h(x) is the function defined by {\displaystyle h(x) = \frac{f(x)}{g(x)}}, where {g(x) \neq 0}, then {\displaystyle h'(x) = \frac{f'(x) \cdot g(x) - g'(x) \cdot f(x)}{g(x)^2}}. Simplify the product -(x-1). The derivative of the linear function is equal to 1.
