Let be a constant. Compute in two ways.
  1. Using the Chain Rule, first decompose into an outside and inside function.
    Outside function (in terms of ):
    Inside function (in terms of ):
    Then find the derivative, (simplify your answer).
  2. Using a law of logarithms to simplify first:
    (Fill in the blanks to make this a true statement.)
    Now take the derivative of the simplified function:
