Derivation $f(tx) = t^{mu}f(x) text{ } forall x in mathbb{R}^n text{ {0}} text{ } forall t in mathbb{R}^+$

Let $mu in mathbb{R}$ be a real number and $f:mathbb{R}^n$ {$0$} $to mathbb{R}$ a function that is positive homegenous with degree $mu$, which means:



$$f(tx) = t^{mu}f(x) text{ } forall x in mathbb{R}^n text{ {0}} text{ } forall t in mathbb{R}^+$$



Furthermore, $f$ is totally differentiable in $mathbb{R}^n$ {$0$}.



How can I show that for a fix $x in mathbb{R^n}$ {$0$} the function $mathbb{R^+} ni t to f(tx) in mathbb{R}$ is totally differentiable in every $t in mathbb{R}^+$ and calculate the function in the position $t$ with the multidimensional chain rule?



I know that the chain rule is

But I struggle with the function.

          If $x ne 0$ is fixed , then put $a:=f(x)$ and $g_x(t):=f(tx)$.



          We have that $g_x(t)=t^{mu}f(x)=a t^{mu}$.



          Can you proceed ?
