$$$\ln\left(\frac{t}{t + 1}\right)$$$ 的導數

函數 $$$\ln\left(\frac{t}{t + 1}\right)$$$ 是兩個函數 $$$f{\left(u \right)} = \ln\left(u\right)$$$ 與 $$$g{\left(t \right)} = \frac{t}{t + 1}$$$ 之複合 $$$f{\left(g{\left(t \right)} \right)}$$$。

應用鏈式法則 $$$\frac{d}{dt} \left(f{\left(g{\left(t \right)} \right)}\right) = \frac{d}{du} \left(f{\left(u \right)}\right) \frac{d}{dt} \left(g{\left(t \right)}\right)$$$：

$${\color{red}\left(\frac{d}{dt} \left(\ln\left(\frac{t}{t + 1}\right)\right)\right)} = {\color{red}\left(\frac{d}{du} \left(\ln\left(u\right)\right) \frac{d}{dt} \left(\frac{t}{t + 1}\right)\right)}$$

自然對數的導數為 $$$\frac{d}{du} \left(\ln\left(u\right)\right) = \frac{1}{u}$$$：

$${\color{red}\left(\frac{d}{du} \left(\ln\left(u\right)\right)\right)} \frac{d}{dt} \left(\frac{t}{t + 1}\right) = {\color{red}\left(\frac{1}{u}\right)} \frac{d}{dt} \left(\frac{t}{t + 1}\right)$$

返回原變數：

$$\frac{\frac{d}{dt} \left(\frac{t}{t + 1}\right)}{{\color{red}\left(u\right)}} = \frac{\frac{d}{dt} \left(\frac{t}{t + 1}\right)}{{\color{red}\left(\frac{t}{t + 1}\right)}}$$

以 $$$f{\left(t \right)} = t$$$ 與 $$$g{\left(t \right)} = t + 1$$$ 套用商法則 $$$\frac{d}{dt} \left(\frac{f{\left(t \right)}}{g{\left(t \right)}}\right) = \frac{\frac{d}{dt} \left(f{\left(t \right)}\right) g{\left(t \right)} - f{\left(t \right)} \frac{d}{dt} \left(g{\left(t \right)}\right)}{g^{2}{\left(t \right)}}$$$：

$$\frac{\left(t + 1\right) {\color{red}\left(\frac{d}{dt} \left(\frac{t}{t + 1}\right)\right)}}{t} = \frac{\left(t + 1\right) {\color{red}\left(\frac{\frac{d}{dt} \left(t\right) \left(t + 1\right) - t \frac{d}{dt} \left(t + 1\right)}{\left(t + 1\right)^{2}}\right)}}{t}$$

套用冪次法則 $$$\frac{d}{dt} \left(t^{n}\right) = n t^{n - 1}$$$，取 $$$n = 1$$$，也就是 $$$\frac{d}{dt} \left(t\right) = 1$$$：

$$\frac{- t \frac{d}{dt} \left(t + 1\right) + \left(t + 1\right) {\color{red}\left(\frac{d}{dt} \left(t\right)\right)}}{t \left(t + 1\right)} = \frac{- t \frac{d}{dt} \left(t + 1\right) + \left(t + 1\right) {\color{red}\left(1\right)}}{t \left(t + 1\right)}$$

和/差的導數等於導數的和/差：

$$\frac{- t {\color{red}\left(\frac{d}{dt} \left(t + 1\right)\right)} + t + 1}{t \left(t + 1\right)} = \frac{- t {\color{red}\left(\frac{d}{dt} \left(t\right) + \frac{d}{dt} \left(1\right)\right)} + t + 1}{t \left(t + 1\right)}$$

常數的導數為$$$0$$$：

$$\frac{- t \left({\color{red}\left(\frac{d}{dt} \left(1\right)\right)} + \frac{d}{dt} \left(t\right)\right) + t + 1}{t \left(t + 1\right)} = \frac{- t \left({\color{red}\left(0\right)} + \frac{d}{dt} \left(t\right)\right) + t + 1}{t \left(t + 1\right)}$$

套用冪次法則 $$$\frac{d}{dt} \left(t^{n}\right) = n t^{n - 1}$$$，取 $$$n = 1$$$，也就是 $$$\frac{d}{dt} \left(t\right) = 1$$$：

$$\frac{- t {\color{red}\left(\frac{d}{dt} \left(t\right)\right)} + t + 1}{t \left(t + 1\right)} = \frac{- t {\color{red}\left(1\right)} + t + 1}{t \left(t + 1\right)}$$

因此，$$$\frac{d}{dt} \left(\ln\left(\frac{t}{t + 1}\right)\right) = \frac{1}{t \left(t + 1\right)}$$$。
