  4. D \(\frac{x+y}{x \log x}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\frac{x-y}{x \log x}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(x=e^{\left(\frac{x}{y}\right)} \Rightarrow \log _e x=\frac{x}{y} \Rightarrow y \log _e x=x\)
Differentiating both sides w.r.t \(x\) we get \(\frac{d y}{d x} \cdot \log _e x+y \cdot \frac{1}{x}=1\)
\(\Rightarrow \frac{d y}{d x} \cdot x \log _e x+y=x\)
\(\Rightarrow \frac{d y}{d x}=\frac{x-y}{x \log _e x}\)
Change the option (C) as \(\frac{x-y}{x \log x}\)
