Let y = f ( x ) . Then ln y = ln x ln ln x by logarithm rules. Differentiating implicitly, using product rule and chain rule, we get y 1 ⋅ d x d y = x 1 ⋅ ln ln x + ln x ⋅ ln x 1 ⋅ x 1 We know that y = f ( e ) = 1 1 = 1 so plugging everything in we get 1 1 ⋅ d x d y = 0 + 1 ⋅ 1 ⋅ e 1 ⟶ d x d y = e 1
