To find the first and second derivatives of ( x \ln(x^2) ), you can use the product rule and chain rule.
-
First derivative: ( f(x) = x \ln(x^2) ) ( f'(x) = 1 \cdot \ln(x^2) + x \cdot \frac{1}{x^2} \cdot 2x ) ( f'(x) = \ln(x^2) + 2 )
-
Second derivative: ( f'(x) = \ln(x^2) + 2 ) ( f''(x) = \frac{1}{x^2} \cdot 2x + 0 ) ( f''(x) = \frac{2}{x} )

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
