We can use the rules of logarithms given above to derive the following
information about limits.
lim ln x = ∞, lim ln x = −∞.
x→∞ x→0

Using Chain Rule for Differentiation : Example 2
Differentiate √
ln | 3 x − 1|.
d 1
I We can simplify this to finding dx 3 ln |x − 1| , since
√
ln | 3 x − 1| = ln |x − 1|1/3

Using Substitution
Reversing our rules of differentiation above, we get:
Z Z 0
1 g (x)
dx = ln |x| + C and dx = ln |g (x)| + C
