    We'll differentiate the given function, with respect to t.


    We'll use the quotient rule:


    v'(t) = [(1+3^t)'*(3^t) - (1+3^t)*(3^t)']/(3^t)^2


    We'll differentiate and we'll get:


    v'(t) = [(3^t*ln3)*(3^t) - (3^t*ln3)*(1+3^t)]/(3^t)^2


    v'(t) = [(3^t*ln3)*(3^t - 1 -3^t)]/(3^t)^2


    We'll eliminate like terms from numerator:


    v'(t) = -(3^t*ln3)/(3^t)^2


    We'll simplify and we'll get:


    v'(t) = -(ln3)/(3^t)


    v'(t) = (ln 1/3)/(3^t)


    The first derivative of v(t)=(1+3^t)/3^t is:


    v'(t) = (ln 1/3)/(3^t)
