# dy/dx = 2e^x #

Explanation:

You should know that the exponential function ,#e^x# where #e# is Euler's Number (2.7182 ...), is the only function that remains unchanged when differentiated.

i.e # d/dx(e^x) = e^x #

So if # y=2e^x => dy/dx = d/dx(2e^x) #
# :. dy/dx = 2d/dx(e^x) #
# :. dy/dx = 2e^x #
