Could someone explain this calculus problem to me, please?
I'm going over some calculus review, but I'm already stumped due to seeing:
Find the derivative of y=x^2 with respect to ln x
According to the answer key, the answer is 2x^2. Could someone explain to me how to solve this problem? I don't expect a full step to step guide but an explanation of how to start off the problem would help. The "with respect to" part confuses me the most.
2 AnswersHomework Help8 years agoMy mom thinks my dad is having an affair when he's obviously not?
How can I convince her that my dad isn't?
Most of her accusations are completely ridiculous...
Every little thing seems to be related to his "mistress".
He goes to work->He's going to see her.
He uses the restroom->They're both in there.
He gets a single missed call since he left his phone on his desk at work and had to go get something real quick->He's ignoring her(mom).
He gets angry at all of these accusations->Mistress's fault

1 AnswerOther - Skin & Body9 years agoSo...where did Noah keep the parasites on his ark?
According to the story of Noah's Ark,a global flood happened,and a crud load of species were loaded onto 1 ship by Noah and his family.Assuming evolution doesn't exist,and none of the other issues such as the gene pool being too small and lack of food and room,where would the parasites go?Putting them in a box wouldn't had worked since parasites are parasites for a reason,and the animals probably wouldn't be too happy about Noah trying to put parasites in them.
