What is the derivative of #y = 10^(1-x^2)#? Calculus Basic Differentiation Rules Chain Rule 1 Answer Eddie Jun 21, 2016 # y' = -2\ln (10) \ x \ 10^{1-x^2} # x Explanation: take natural logs #\ln y = \ln (10^(1- x^2)) = (1- x^2) \ln (10) # #\\frac{1}{y} y' = - 2x \ln( 10) # # y' = - 2x \ln 10 \times y = -2\ln (10) \ x \ 10^{1-x^2} # Answer link Related questions What is the Chain Rule for derivatives?
