If $y=[(x+1)(2 x+1)(3 x+1) \ldots \ldots \ldots \ldots(\mathrm{n} x+1)]^4$ then $\frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{~d} x}$ at $x=0$ is
- $\frac{\mathrm{n}(\mathrm{n}+1)}{2}$
- $4 \mathrm{n}(\mathrm{n}+1)$
- $\left(\frac{\mathrm{n}(\mathrm{n}+1)}{2}\right)^2$
- $2 \mathrm{n}(\mathrm{n}+1)$
Solution
$\begin{aligned}
& y=[(x+1)(2 x+1)(3 x+1) \ldots(n x+1)]^4 \\
& \Rightarrow \log y=4[\log (x+1)(2 x+1)(3 x+1) \ldots(n x+1)] \\
& \Rightarrow \quad \log y=4[\log (x+1)+\log (2 x+1) \\
& \quad \quad+\log (3 x+1)+\ldots+\log (n x+1)]
\end{aligned}$
Differentiating both sides w.r.t. $x$, we get
$\begin{aligned} & \frac{1}{y} \frac{\mathrm{~d} y}{\mathrm{~d} x}=4\left[\frac{1}{x+1}+\frac{2}{2 x+1}+\frac{3}{3 x+1}+\ldots+\frac{\mathrm{n}}{\mathrm{n} x+1}\right] \\ & \Rightarrow \frac{1}{1}\left(\frac{\mathrm{~d} y}{\mathrm{~d} x}\right)_{x=0}=4(1+2+3+\ldots \mathrm{n}) \\ & \Rightarrow\left(\frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{~d} x}\right)_{x=0}=4\left(\frac{\mathrm{n}(\mathrm{n}+1)}{2}\right)=2 \mathrm{n}(\mathrm{n}+1)\end{aligned}$
