Part 2/5:
However, a key consideration is that (X) cannot equal zero, as the logarithmic differentiation method utilized to derive this formula requires (X) to maintain positive values.
Logarithmic Differentiation and Its Restrictions
The process begins with logarithmic differentiation, where logarithmic properties uphold the relationship between exponentiation and logarithmic functions. Specifically, we start by rewriting the equation:
[
\ln |Y| = n \cdot \ln |X|
]
