If $f(x)=\log _x\{\ln (x)\}$, then f'(x) at x = e is |
$e$ $-e$ $e^2$ $e^{-1}$ |
$e^{-1}$ |
We have, $f(x)=\log _x\{\ln (x)\}=\frac{\ln (\ln (x))}{\ln (x)}$ ∴ $f'(x)=\frac{\ln (x) . \frac{1}{\ln (x)} . \frac{1}{x}-\ln \{\ln (x)\} \frac{1}{x}}{(\ln (x))^2}=\frac{1-\ln \{\ln (x)\}}{x\{\ln (x)\}^2}$ $\Rightarrow f'(e)=\frac{1-\ln \{\ln (e))\}}{e\{\ln (e)\}^2}=\frac{1-\ln (1)}{e}=\frac{1}{e}$ |
