We can go by using chain rule and also the rule to derivate exponential functions.

Explanation:

Chain rule states that #(dy)/(dx)=(dy)/(du)(du)/(dx)#.
We'll also need the rule to derivate exponential functions, which is: be #f(x)=a^u#, then #f'(x)=a^u(lna)u'#

Let's rename #u=lnx#.

Solving:

#(dy)/(dx)=(lnx)^(3x)(ln(lnx))*3#
