NCERT Class 12 Maths · Chapter 5 Continuity And Differentiability · Exercise 5.7 Question 5

Find the second derivative of \(x^{3} \log{\left(x \right)}\) with respect to x; for x>0.

💡 Concept Hints

  1. Identify the domain and the inner and outer functions, or the relevant one-sided limits.
  2. Apply the appropriate differentiation or limit rule, keep all chain factors, and check exceptional points.

✅ Step-by-Step Solution

Final Answer: \(x \left(6 \log{\left(x \right)} + 5\right)\)
  1. Work for x>0.
  2. Product rule: differentiate each variable factor once, keeping the other factors unchanged. Here \(\frac{d}{d x} x^{3} \log{\left(x \right)}\) = \(3 x^{2} \log{\left(x \right)} + x^{2}\).
  3. Differentiate the first derivative \(3 x^{2} \log{\left(x \right)} + x^{2}\) again.
  4. Power and chain rules: \(\frac{d}{d x} x^{2}\) = \(2 x\) × \(1\) = \(2 x\).
  5. Product rule: differentiate each variable factor once, keeping the other factors unchanged. Here \(\frac{d}{d x} 3 x^{2} \log{\left(x \right)}\) = \(6 x \log{\left(x \right)} + 3 x\).
  6. Sum rule: \(\frac{d}{d x} \left(3 x^{2} \log{\left(x \right)} + x^{2}\right)\) = \(6 x \log{\left(x \right)} + 5 x\).
  7. Combining the terms gives y″ = \(x \left(6 \log{\left(x \right)} + 5\right)\).
