MCQ
If $\text{y}=\frac{1+\frac{1}{\text{x}^2}}{1-\frac{1}{\text{x}^2}},$ then $\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=$
  • $-\frac{4\text{x}}{(\text{x}^2-1)^2}$
  • B
    $-\frac{4\text{x}}{\text{x}^2-1}$
  • C
    $\frac{1-\text{x}^2}{\text{4x}}$
  • D
    $\frac{4\text{x}}{\text{x}^2-1}$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$-\frac{4\text{x}}{(\text{x}^2-1)^2}$
$\text{y}=\frac{1+\frac{1}{\text{x}^2}}{1-\frac{1}{\text{x}^2}}$
$=\frac{\text{x}^2+1}{\text{x}^2-1}$
Differentiate both the sides with respect to $x,$ we get
$\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{(\text{x}^2-1)\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}(\text{x}^2+1)-(\text{x}^2+1)\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}(\text{x}^2-1)}{(\text{x}^2-1)^2} ($Quotient rule$)$
$=\frac{(\text{x}^2-1)(\text{2x}+0)-(\text{x}^2+1)(\text{2x}-0)}{(\text{x}^2-1)^2}$
$=\frac{\text{2x}^3-\text{2x}-\text{2x}^3-\text{2x}}{(\text{x}^2-1)^2}$
$=\frac{-\text{4x}}{(\text{x}^2-1)^2}$
