If $y=\sin \left(\log _e x\right)$, then $x^2 \frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}+x \frac{d y}{d x}$ is equal to

If $y=\sin \left(\log _e x\right)$, then $x^2 \frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}+x \frac{d y}{d x}$ is equal to
  1. $\sin \left(\log _e x\right)$
  2. $\cos \left(\log _e x\right)$
  3. $y^2$
  4. $-y$

Solution

Given that, $y=\sin \left(\log _e x\right)$ On differentiating w.r.t. $x$, we get $\frac{d y}{d x}=\cos \left(\log _e x\right) \cdot \frac{1}{x}$ Again differentiating, we get $\begin{aligned} \frac{d^2 y}{d x^2} & =\frac{-x \cdot \sin \left(\log _e x\right) \cdot \frac{1}{x}-\cos \left(\log _e x\right) \cdot 1}{x^2} \\ & =\frac{-\sin \left(\log _e x\right)-\cos \left(\log _e x\right)}{x^2} \end{aligned}$ Now, $\quad x^2 \frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}+x \frac{d y}{d x}$ $\begin{aligned} & =\frac{x^2\left[-\sin \left(\log _e x\right)-\cos \left(\log _e x\right)\right]}{x^2} \\ & =-\sin \left(\log _e x\right) \\ & =-y \quad \text { [from Eq. (i)] } \end{aligned}$
