Question

Find the second order derivative of the function.

log x

Sum
Advertisements

Solution

Let, y = log x

Differentiating both sides with respect to x,

`dy/dx = d/dx log x`

`dy/dx = 1/x`

Differentiating both sides again with respect to x,

`(d^2y)/(dx^2 ) = d/dx [1/x]`

= `d/dx [x^-1]`

= `-1 x^(-1-1)`

= −1 x−2

= `-1/x^2`
