Question

`"If"  y = sqrt(logx + sqrt(log x + sqrt(log x + ... ∞))), "then show that"  dy/dx = (1)/(x(2y - 1).`

Solution

`y = sqrt(logx + sqrt(log x + sqrt(log x + ... ∞)))`

∴ `y^2 = log x + sqrt(log x + sqrt(log x + ... ∞)`

∴ y2 = log x + y

Differentiating both sides w.r.t. x, we get,

`2y. dy/dx = (1)/x + dy/dx`

∴ `(2y - 1) dy/dx = (1)/x`

∴ `dy/dx = (1)/(x(2y - 1)`.
