Question:

If $y =log_2(log_2x),$ then $\frac{dy}{dx}$ is equal to :

Options:

$\frac{log_2e}{log_ex}$

$\frac{log_2e}{xlog_e2}$

$\frac{log_2e}{xlog_ex}$

$\frac{log_ex}{xlog_2e}$

Correct Answer:

$\frac{log_2e}{xlog_ex}$

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (3) → $\frac{log_2e}{xlog_ex}$

$y =\log_2(\log_2x)=\frac{\log(\log_2x)}{\log 2}$

$y=\frac{\log(\log x)}{\log_2}-\frac{\log(\log_2)}{\log_2}$

$\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{1}{x\log_2\log x}=\frac{\log_2e}{x\log x}$
