The correct Answer is:
To find the derivative of \( y = \log(\log x) \) with respect to \( x \) for \( x > 1 \), we will use the chain rule. Here’s the step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: Define the function Let \[ y = \log(\log x) \] ### Step 2: Differentiate using the chain rule To differentiate \( y \) with respect to \( x \), we apply the chain rule. The chain rule states that if \( y = f(g(x)) \), then \[ \frac{dy}{dx} = f'(g(x)) \cdot g'(x) \] In our case, let \( u = \log x \). Then, we can rewrite \( y \) as: \[ y = \log(u) \] ### Step 3: Differentiate \( y \) with respect to \( u \) The derivative of \( y \) with respect to \( u \) is: \[ \frac{dy}{du} = \frac{1}{u} \] ### Step 4: Differentiate \( u \) with respect to \( x \) Now, we need to find \( \frac{du}{dx} \): \[ u = \log x \implies \frac{du}{dx} = \frac{1}{x} \] ### Step 5: Apply the chain rule Now, we can combine these derivatives using the chain rule: \[ \frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{dy}{du} \cdot \frac{du}{dx} = \frac{1}{u} \cdot \frac{1}{x} \] ### Step 6: Substitute back for \( u \) Since \( u = \log x \), we substitute back: \[ \frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{1}{\log x} \cdot \frac{1}{x} = \frac{1}{x \log x} \] ### Final Answer Thus, the derivative of \( y = \log(\log x) \) with respect to \( x \) is: \[ \frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{1}{x \log x} \]
