Answer

$\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{1}{\ln{5}}\frac{3}{3x-7}$

Work Step by Step

$y=\log_{5}{({3x-7})}=\frac{\ln{({3x-7})}}{ln5}$ On differentiating both sides: $\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{1}{ln{5}}\frac{d(\ln{({3x-7})})}{dx}$ $\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{1}{\ln{5}}\frac{1}{(3x-7)}\frac{d(3x-7)} {dx}$ $\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{1}{\ln{5}}\frac{3}{3x-7}$
