I just have a quick question that will avoid me having to go into uni and discussing it with a tutor: What's the rule for when you are differentiating an equation with logs?

for arguments sake take this equation:
y = ln x^3 + ln x

?
thanks in advance.

also what do you do when you have a log and then a co-efficient of x... I have no idea, school was a long time ago.

I'm disappointed I could do that without looking at the tutorial, its really not that difficult.
