Question
Find $\frac{ d y}{ d x}$, if $y =(\log x )^{ x }+( x ) \log ^{ x }$

Answer

$y=(\log x)^x+(x) \log x$
Let $u =(\log x )^{ x }$ and $v = x \log x$
$\therefore y = u + v$
Differentiating both sides w. r. t. x, we get
$\frac{ d y}{ d x}=\frac{ du }{ d x}+\frac{ dv }{ d x} \ldots(\text{i})$
Now, $u=(\log x)^x$
Taking logarithm of both sides, we get
$\log u=\log (\log x)^x=x \log (\log x)$
Differentiating both sides w. r. t. x, we get
$ \frac{ d }{ d x}(\log u )=x \cdot \frac{ d }{ d x}[\log (\log x)]+\log (\log x) \cdot \frac{ d }{ d x}(x)$
$\therefore \frac{1}{ u } \cdot \frac{ du }{ d x}=x \cdot \frac{1}{\log x} \cdot \frac{ d }{ d x}(\log x)+\log (\log x) \cdot 1 $
$ \therefore \frac{1}{ u } \cdot \frac{ du }{ d x}=x \cdot \frac{1}{\log x} \cdot \frac{1}{x}+\log (\log x)$
$\therefore \frac{ du }{ d x}= u \left[\frac{1}{\log x}+\log (\log x)\right]$
$\therefore \frac{ du }{ d x}=(\log x)^x\left[\frac{1}{\log x}+\log (\log x)\right] \ldots(\text{ii}) $
Also, $v=x^{\log x}$
Taking logarithm of both sides, we get
$ \log v=\log \left(x^{\log x}\right)=\log x(\log x)$
$\therefore \log v=(\log x)^2 $
Differentiating both sides w.r.t. $x$, we get
$ \frac{1}{ v } \cdot \frac{ dv }{ d x}=2 \log x \cdot \frac{ d }{ d x}(\log x)$
$\therefore \frac{1}{ v } \cdot \frac{ dv }{ d x}=2 \log x \cdot \frac{1}{x} $
Substituting (ii) and (iii) in (i), we get.: $\frac{ d }{ d x}= v \left[\frac{2 \log x}{x}\right]$
$\therefore \frac{ dv }{ d x}=x^{\log x}\left[\frac{2 \log x}{x}\right]$
Substituting (ii) and (iii) in (i), we get
$\frac{ d y}{ d x}=(\log x)^x\left[\frac{1}{\log x}+\log (\log x)\right]+x^{\log x}\left[\frac{2 \log x}{x}\right]$

The population of city doubles in 80 years, in how many years will it be triple when the rate of increase is proportional to the number of inhabitants. (Given $\frac{\log 3}{\log 2}=1.5894$ )
Solution: Let $p$ be the population at time $t$.
Then the rate of increase of $p$ is $\frac{ dp }{ dt }$ which is proportional to $p$.
$ \therefore \frac{ dp }{ dt } \propto p$
$\therefore \frac{ dp }{ dt }= kp , \text { where } k \text { is a constant }$
$\therefore \frac{ dp }{ p }= kdt $
On integrating, we get
$ \int \frac{ dp }{ p }= k \int dt$
$\therefore \log p = kt + c $
Initially, i.e., when $t=0$, let $p=N$
$ \therefore \log N=k \times 0+c$
$\therefore c=\square$
$\text { When } t=80, p=2 N$
$\therefore \log 2 N=80 k+\log N$
$\therefore \log 2 N-\log N=80 k $
$\therefore \log \left(\frac{2 N}{N}\right)=80 k$
$\therefore \log (2)=80 k$
$\therefore k=\square$
$\therefore p=3 N, \text { then } t=?$
$\therefore \log p=\frac{\log 2}{80} t+\log N$
$\therefore \log 3 N-\log N=\square$
$\therefore t=\square=\square \text { years }$
