What is the derivative of 5e^(x)+3? Calculus Differentiating Exponential Functions Differentiating Exponential Functions with Base e 1 Answer reudhreghs May 1, 2016 d/dx (5e^x+3)=5e^x Explanation: The derivative of e^x is just e^x. Multiplied by five, and d/dx (5e^x)=5e^x Since 3 is a simple constant, its derivative is 0, as it does not change the gradient of the graph - think about the graph of y=3 and it has a gradient of 0. Therefore, d/dx (5e^x+3)=5e^x Answer link Related questions What is the derivative of y=3x^2e^(5x) ? What is the derivative of y=e^(3-2x) ? What is the derivative of f(theta)=e^(sin2theta) ?
