Remember differentiating a constant = 0.
Also remember log(A/B)=logA-logB

2)

Are you sure the last equation is ? I think you mean . Remember that log 2 is a constant.

Also, this should be posted in High School Maths.

dx a

No, since “x/a” is dependent of x, so you should pick the constant 1/a out.

d/dx (x/a) = (1/a) dx/dx = 1/a
