If y=a x^(n+1)+b x^(-n),t h e nx^2(d^2y)...

If `y=a x^(n+1)+b x^(-n),t h e nx^2(d^2y)/(dx^2)` is equal to `n(n-1)y` (b) `n(n+1)y` (c) `n y` (d) `n^2y`

A

n(n-1) y

B

n(n+1)y

C

ny

D

`n^(2)y`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`y=ax^(n+1)+bx^(-n)`
`"or "(dy)/(dx)=(n+1)ax^(n)-nbx^(-n-1)`
`"or "(d^(2)y)/(dx^(2))=n(n+1)ax^(n-1)+n(n+1)bx^(-n-2)`
`"or "x^(2)(d^(2)y)/(dx^(2))=n(n+1)y`
