Step-by-step explanation

1. Solve derivative

Computing the derivative of a power function.

$\frac{d}{d x} [x^{x}] = x^{x} (\frac{d}{d x} [x] \times \ln (x) + \frac{x}{x} \times \frac{d}{d x} [x])$

The derivative of a variable with respect to itself is always equal to one.

$x^{x} (\frac{d}{d x} [x] \times \ln (x) + \frac{x}{x} \times \frac{d}{d x} [x]) = x^{x} (1 \times \ln (x) + \frac{x}{x} \times \frac{d}{d x} [x])$

Simplifying the arithmetic expressions.

$x^{x} (1 \times \ln (x) + \frac{x}{x} \times \frac{d}{d x} [x]) = x^{x} (1 \times \ln (x) + 1 \times \frac{d}{d x} [x])$

The derivative of a variable with respect to itself is always equal to one.

$x^{x} (1 \times \ln (x) + 1 \times \frac{d}{d x} [x]) = x^{x} (1 \times \ln (x) + 1 \times 1)$

Multiplying a number by one, which does not change its value.

$x^{x} (1 \times \ln (x) + 1 \times 1) = x^{x} (\ln (x) + 1 \times 1)$

Multiplying a number by one, which does not change its value.

$x^{x} (\ln (x) + 1 \times 1) = x^{x} (\ln (x) + 1)$

Simplifying the arithmetic expressions.

$x^{x} \times (\ln (x) + 1) = x^{x} (\ln (x) + 1)$
