The correct Answer is:
To differentiate the function \( y = \frac{\log x}{x} \), we will use the quotient rule. The quotient rule states that if you have a function in the form \( \frac{u}{v} \), then its derivative is given by: \[ \frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{v \frac{du}{dx} - u \frac{dv}{dx}}{v^2} \] where \( u = \log x \) and \( v = x \). ### Step 1: Identify \( u \) and \( v \) Let: - \( u = \log x \) - \( v = x \) ### Step 2: Differentiate \( u \) and \( v \) Now we need to find \( \frac{du}{dx} \) and \( \frac{dv}{dx} \): - The derivative of \( u \) is: \[ \frac{du}{dx} = \frac{1}{x} \] - The derivative of \( v \) is: \[ \frac{dv}{dx} = 1 \] ### Step 3: Apply the Quotient Rule Now we can apply the quotient rule: \[ \frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{x \cdot \frac{1}{x} - \log x \cdot 1}{x^2} \] ### Step 4: Simplify the Expression Now simplify the expression: \[ \frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{1 - \log x}{x^2} \] ### Final Result Thus, the derivative of \( y = \frac{\log x}{x} \) is: \[ \frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{1 - \log x}{x^2} \] ---
