  2. B \(\frac{\log x}{x(1+\log x)^2}\)
  3. C \(\frac{\log x}{(1+\log x)^2}\)

Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\frac{\log x}{(1+\log x)^2}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(x^y=e^{x-y}\)

\(\begin{aligned} & \Rightarrow \frac{d y}{d x} \log x+y \cdot \frac{1}{x}=1-\frac{d y}{d x} \\ & \Rightarrow \frac{d y}{d x}=\frac{x-y}{x(1+\log x)} \\ & \Rightarrow \frac{d y}{d x}=\frac{\log x}{(1+\log x)^2} \left[\text { Putting } y=\frac{x}{1+\log x} \text { from (i)] }\right.\end{aligned}\)
