1. Apply the product rule to differentiate the expression

Let y=3x2ln⁡xy = 3x^2\ln x.
Using the product rule ddx(uv)=udvdx+vdudx\frac{d}{dx}(uv) = u\frac{dv}{dx} + v\frac{du}{dx} with u=3x2u = 3x^2 and v=ln⁡xv = \ln x:
dydx=3x2⋅ddx(ln⁡x)+ln⁡x⋅ddx(3x2)\frac{dy}{dx} = 3x^2 \cdot \frac{d}{dx}(\ln x) + \ln x \cdot \frac{d}{dx}(3x^2)

2. Differentiate the individual terms and simplify

dydx=3x2(1x)+(ln⁡x)(6x)\frac{dy}{dx} = 3x^2 \left(\frac{1}{x}\right) + (\ln x)(6x)
=3x+6xln⁡x= 3x + 6x\ln x

Answer

3x+6xln⁡x3x + 6x\ln x
