We have the 7th power of the ln function, Using the rule for diffrenetiating powers and the cain rule , we get
(ln^7(x)' = 7 ln^6(x) * 1/x, =7 ln^6(x) /x, since the derivative of ln(x) is 1/x.

Just how you would have done d/dx of (x+1)^7 which gives you, 7(x+1)^6
Now, for this ques, you get, [7 ln^6(x)]/x

I think you want the derivative of: y = ln^7(x) = [ln(x)]^7. If so you may take u = ln(x).
Then (i) du/dx = 1/x,
(ii) y = u^7, and
(iii) dy/du = 7u^6 = 7[ln(x)]^6
So that by Chain Rule:
dy/dx = [dy/du]*[du/dx] = 7[ln(x)]^6*(1/x).

y = ln^7(x)
y = 7ln x
dy= 7dx/x

d/dx (ln^7(x)) =
d(ln(x))/d(ln(x)) d/dx (ln^7(x)) =
d(ln(x))/dx d/d(ln(x)) (ln^7(x)) =
1/x 7 ln^6(x) =
7ln^6(x) / x

get rif of the 7.by base changing rule.
then the ans is 1/(x) * d/dx (x)
