  • $\frac{1}{x}$
  • C
    $\log (1+x)$
  • D
    $1+\log x$
Answer
Correct option: B.
$\frac{1}{x}$
(B)
$\begin{aligned} & & y & =x \log x \\ \Rightarrow & & \frac{d y}{d x} & =x \cdot \frac{1}{x}+\log x \cdot 1 \\ \Rightarrow & & \frac{d y}{d x} & =1+\log x \\ \Rightarrow & & \frac{d^2 y}{d x^2} & =0+\frac{1}{x}=\frac{1}{x}\end{aligned}$

MCQ 31 Mark
If $y=\sin \left(m \sin ^{-1} x\right)$ in which of the option is correct :
  • A
    $\left(1-x^2\right) \frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}+x \frac{d y}{d x}+m^2 y=0$
  • $\left(1-x^2\right) \frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}-x \frac{d y}{d x}+m^2 y=0$
  • C
    $\left(1+x^2\right) \frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}-x \frac{d y}{d x}-m^2 y=0$
  • D
    $\left(1+x^2\right) \frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}+x \frac{d y}{d x}-m^2 x=0$
Answer
Correct option: B.
$\left(1-x^2\right) \frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}-x \frac{d y}{d x}+m^2 y=0$
(B)Given that : $y=\sin \left(m \sin ^{-1} x\right)$$
\begin{aligned}
\therefore \quad \frac{d y}{d x} & =\cos \left(m \sin ^{-1}\right) \cdot \frac{d}{d x}\left(m \sin ^{-1} x\right) \\
& =\cos \left(m \sin ^{-1}\right) \cdot \frac{m}{\sqrt{1-x^2}} \\
& =\frac{m \cos \left(m \sin ^{-1}\right) x}{\sqrt{1-x^2}}
\end{aligned}
$$
\Rightarrow \sqrt{1-x^2} \frac{d y}{d x}=m \cos \left(m \sin ^{-1} x\right)
$
On squaring $\left(1-x^2\right)\left(\frac{d y}{d x}\right)^2=m^2\left(1-y^2\right)$
again differentiating w.r.t. $x$
$
\begin{array}{l}
\left(1-x^2\right) 2\left(\frac{d y}{d x}\right) \frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}+(-2 x) \\
\left(\frac{d y}{d x}\right)^2=m^2(-2 y) \frac{d y}{d x}
\end{array}
$$\Rightarrow \quad\left(1-x^2\right) \frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}-x \frac{d y}{d x}=-m^2 y \quad\left[\right.$ divide by $\left.\frac{d y}{d x}\right]$
hence $\left(1-x^2\right) \frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}-x \frac{d y}{d x}+m^2 y=0$

  • D
    $\frac{4 y\left(x^2+y^2\right)-x}{y-4 x\left(x^2+y^2\right)}$
Answer
Correct option: C.
$\frac{y-4 x\left(x^2+y^2\right)}{4 y\left(x^2+y^2\right)-x}$
(C)Here $\left(x^2+y^2\right)^2=x y$
Differentiating w.r.t. $x$$
\begin{array}{l}
2\left(x^2+y^2\right)\left(2 x+2 y \frac{d y}{d x}\right)=x \frac{d y}{d x}+y \\
\Rightarrow 4\left(x^2+y^2\right) x+4\left(x^2+y^2\right) y \frac{d y}{d x}=x \frac{d y}{d x}+y \\
\Rightarrow \quad\left[4 y\left(x^2+y^2\right)-x\right] \frac{d y}{d x}=y-4 x\left(x^2+y^2\right)
\end{array}
$
Hence, $\frac{d y}{d x}=\frac{y-4 x\left(x^2+y^2\right)}{4 y\left(x^2+y^2\right)-x}$
