MCQ
If $y = x + e^x$ then $\frac{{{d^2}x}}{{d{y^2}}}$ is :
  • A
    $e^x$
  • $ - \frac{{{e^x}}}{{{{\left( {1\, + \,{e^x}} \right)}^3}}}$
  • C
    $-\frac{{{e^x}}}{{{{\left( {1\, + \,{e^x}} \right)}^2}}}$
  • D
    $\frac{{ - 1}}{{{{\left( {1\, + \,{e^x}} \right)}^3}}}$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$ - \frac{{{e^x}}}{{{{\left( {1\, + \,{e^x}} \right)}^3}}}$
b
$y=x+e^{x}$

$d y / d x=1+e^{x}$

$\Rightarrow \quad \frac{d x}{d y}=\frac{1}{1+e^{x}}$

$\Rightarrow \quad \frac{d^{2} x}{d y^{2}}=\frac{-e^{x}}{\left(1+e^{x}\right)^{2}} \cdot \frac{d x}{d y}=\frac{-e^{x}}{\left(1+e^{x}\right)^{3}}$
