Differentiation Question 6

Question: If $ y=x^{2}+{x^{\log x}}, $ then $ \frac{dy}{dx}= $

[DSSE 1986]

Options:

A) $ \frac{x^{2}+\log x.{x^{\log x}}}{x} $

B) $ x^{2}+\log x.{x^{\log x}} $

C) $ \frac{2(x^{2}+\log x.{x^{\log x}})}{x} $

D) None of these

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: C

Solution:

$ y=x^{2}+{x^{\log x}} $

Therefore $ \frac{dy}{dx}=2x+{x^{\log x}}( 2{\log _{e}}x.\frac{1}{x} ) $

$ =\frac{2(x^{2}+{x^{\log x}}{\log _{e}}x)}{x} $ .
