(dY)/dx= (2+tanx)/x+lnxsec^2x
[Given assumptions stated below]

Explanation:

First a couple of assumptions on this question:
(i) you are looking for the first derivative ((dY)/dx)
(ii) log is natural log (ln)

Then, applying the Product Rule and standard differentials for lnx and tanx:

(dY)/dx= (2+tanx)* d/dx(lnx) + lnx* d/dx(2+tanx)

= (2+tanx)* 1/x+lnx*(0+sec^2x)

= (2+tanx)/x+lnxsec^2x
