The correct Answer is:
To find the second derivative \(\frac{d^2y}{dx^2}\) when \(y = \frac{\log x}{x}\), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Find the first derivative \(\frac{dy}{dx}\) Given: \[ y = \frac{\log x}{x} \] We will use the quotient rule for differentiation, which states that if \(y = \frac{u}{v}\), then: \[ \frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{v \frac{du}{dx} - u \frac{dv}{dx}}{v^2} \] Here, \(u = \log x\) and \(v = x\). First, we find the derivatives: - \(\frac{du}{dx} = \frac{1}{x}\) - \(\frac{dv}{dx} = 1\) Now applying the quotient rule: \[ \frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{x \cdot \frac{1}{x} - \log x \cdot 1}{x^2} \] \[ = \frac{1 - \log x}{x^2} \] ### Step 2: Find the second derivative \(\frac{d^2y}{dx^2}\) Now we need to differentiate \(\frac{dy}{dx}\) again: \[ \frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{1 - \log x}{x^2} \] Again, we will use the quotient rule: Let \(u = 1 - \log x\) and \(v = x^2\). Finding the derivatives: - \(\frac{du}{dx} = -\frac{1}{x}\) - \(\frac{dv}{dx} = 2x\) Now applying the quotient rule: \[ \frac{d^2y}{dx^2} = \frac{v \frac{du}{dx} - u \frac{dv}{dx}}{v^2} \] \[ = \frac{x^2 \left(-\frac{1}{x}\right) - (1 - \log x)(2x)}{(x^2)^2} \] \[ = \frac{-x - 2x(1 - \log x)}{x^4} \] \[ = \frac{-x - 2x + 2x \log x}{x^4} \] \[ = \frac{-3x + 2x \log x}{x^4} \] Now, we can simplify this: \[ = \frac{x(-3 + 2 \log x)}{x^4} = \frac{-3 + 2 \log x}{x^3} \] Thus, the second derivative is: \[ \frac{d^2y}{dx^2} = \frac{-3 + 2 \log x}{x^3} \] ### Final Answer: \[ \frac{d^2y}{dx^2} = \frac{-3 + 2 \log x}{x^3} \] ---
