     If \[y={{(1+x)}^{x}},\]then \[\frac{dy}{dx}=\]

    A)            \[{{(1+x)}^{x}}\left[ \frac{x}{1+x}+\log ex \right]\]          

    B)            \[\frac{x}{1+x}+\log (1+x)\]

    C)            \[{{(1+x)}^{x}}\left[ \frac{x}{1+x}+\log (1+x) \right]\]

    D)            None of these

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

               \[y={{(1+x)}^{x}}\]            Taking log on both sides, \[\log y=x\log (1+x)\]            Differentiating w.r.t. x, we get            \[\frac{1}{y}\frac{dy}{dx}=\log (1+x)+x\frac{1}{(1+x)}\]                    Thus \[\frac{dy}{dx}={{(1+x)}^{x}}\left[ \frac{x}{1+x}+\log (1+x) \right]\]
