For $x>1$, if $(2 x)^{2 y}=4 \mathrm{e}^{2 x-2 y}$, then $(1+\log 2 x)^2 \frac{d y}{d x}$ is equal to
  1. $\frac{x \log 2 x+\log 2}{x}$
  2. $\frac{x \log 2 x-\log 2}{x}$
  3. $x \log 2 x$
  4. $\log 2 x$

Solution

$(2 x)^{2 y}=4 \mathrm{e}^{2 x-2 y}$ Taking log on both sides, we get $\begin{aligned} & 2 y \log 2 x=\log \left(4 \mathrm{e}^{2 x-2 y}\right) \\ & \Rightarrow 2 y \log 2 x=\log 4+\log \mathrm{e}^{2 x-2 y} \\ & \Rightarrow 2 y \log 2 x=\log 4+2 x-2 y \\ & \Rightarrow 2 y \log 2 x+2 y=\log 4+2 x \\ & \Rightarrow 2(y \log 2 x+y)=2 \log 2+2 x \\ & \Rightarrow y \log 2 x+y=\log 2+x \\ & \Rightarrow y(1+\log 2 x)=x+\log 2 \\ & \Rightarrow y=\frac{x+\log 2}{1+\log 2 x} \end{aligned}$ Differentiating w.r.t. $x$, we get $\begin{gathered} \frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{~d} x}=\frac{(1+\log 2 x)(1+0)-(x+\log 2)\left(\frac{1}{2 x}\right) \cdot 2}{(1+\log 2 x)^2} \\ \Rightarrow \frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{~d} x}=\frac{(1+\log 2 x)-\frac{1}{x}(x+\log 2)}{(1+\log 2 x)^2} \\ \Rightarrow(1+\log 2 x)^2 \frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{~d} x}=1+\log 2 x-1-\frac{\log 2}{x} \\ \Rightarrow(1+\log 2 x)^2 \frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{~d} x}=\log 2 x-\frac{\log 2}{x} \\ =\frac{x \log 2 x-\log 2}{x} \end{gathered}$
