MCQ
If $y ={x^{{x^2}}}$ then $\frac{{dy}}{{dx}}=$
  • A
    $2  \, ln \, x .{x^{{x^2}}}$
  • B
    $(2  \, ln \, x + 1).{x^{{x^2}}}$
  • C
    $(2  \, ln \, x + 1).{x^{{x^2+2}}}$
  • ${x^{{x^2}}}. \, ln \, ex^2$

Answer

Correct option: D.
${x^{{x^2}}}. \, ln \, ex^2$
d
We have, $y=x^{x}$

Taking log on both the sides, we get $\log y=x \log x$

On differentiating w.r.t. $x$, we get $\frac{1}{y} \frac{d y}{d x}=\frac{x}{x}+\log x$

$\Rightarrow \frac{d y}{d x}=y+y \log x$

$\Rightarrow \frac{d y}{d x}=x^{x}(1+\log x) \ldots\left(\because y=x^{x}\right)$
