MCQ
If ${I_n} = {{{d^n}} \over {d{x^n}}}({x^n}\log x),$ then ${I_n} - n{I_{n - 1}} = $
  • A
    $n$
  • B
    $n - 1$
  • C
    $n!$
  • $(n - 1)!$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$(n - 1)!$
d
(d) ${I_n} = \frac{{{d^{n - 1}}}}{{d{x^{n - 1}}}}[{x^{n - 1}} + n{x^{n - 1}}\log x]$

${I_n} = (n - 1)! + n{I_{n - 1}}$ ==> ${I_n} - n{I_{n - 1}} = (n - 1)!$.
