MCQ
If $y = {x^x}$, then ${{dy} \over {dx}} = $
  • ${x^x}\log ex$
  • B
    ${x^x}\left( {1 + {1 \over x}} \right)$
  • C
    $(1 + \log x)$
  • D
    ${x^x}\log x$

Answer

Correct option: A.
${x^x}\log ex$
a
(a) $y = {x^x}$

Taking $\log $ on both sides, ==> $\log y = x\log x$

Differentiating with respect to $x,$ we get

==> $\frac{1}{y}\frac{{dy}}{{dx}} = 1 + \log x$; 

$\therefore \frac{{dy}}{{dx}} = {x^x}(1 + \log x) = {x^x}\log ex$.
