If ey(1+x)=1e^y(1+x)=1, then d2ydx2\dfrac{d^2y}{dx^2} is:

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 1

From ey(1+x)=1e^y(1+x)=1, taking logs gives y=−log⁡(1+x)y = -\log(1+x).

Then dydx=−11+x\dfrac{dy}{dx} = \dfrac{-1}{1+x} and d2ydx2=1(1+x)2\dfrac{d^2y}{dx^2} = \dfrac{1}{(1+x)^2}.

Since 1(1+x)2=(−11+x)2\dfrac{1}{(1+x)^2} = \left(\dfrac{-1}{1+x}\right)^2, we get d2ydx2=(dydx)2\dfrac{d^2y}{dx^2} = \left(\dfrac{dy}{dx}\right)^2.
