How do you differentiate f(x) = e ^ (2(e^(t) - 1)f(x)=e2(et1)?

typo?

Explanation:

f(color{blue}{x}) = e ^ (2(e^(color{red}{t}) - 1)f(x)=e2(et1)

gotta typo in there? or trick question?

the trick with exponents is: d/(du) ( e^(f(u)) )= (df)/(du) e^(f(u))ddu(ef(u))=dfduef(u)

f'(t) = 2e^(2(e^t-1)+t)

Explanation:

We will assume that the function was meant to be f(t) rather than f(x)

Thus: f(t) = e^(2(e^t-1))

f'(t) = e^(2(e^t-1)) * d/dt (2(e^t-1))
(Standard Exponential and Chain rule)

f'(t) = e^(2(e^t-1)) * 2(e^t - 0)

f'(t) = 2e^(2(e^t-1)+t)
