log(x)
------
1 - x 
$$\frac{\log{\left(x \right)}}{1 - x}$$
log(x)/(1 - x)
Detail solution
  1. Apply the quotient rule, which is:

    and .

    To find :

    1. The derivative of is .

    To find :

    1. Differentiate term by term:

      1. The derivative of the constant is zero.

      2. The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.

        1. Apply the power rule: goes to

        So, the result is:

      The result is:

    Now plug in to the quotient rule:

  2. Now simplify:


The answer is:

The first derivative [src]
    1        log(x) 
--------- + --------
x*(1 - x)          2
            (1 - x) 
$$\frac{\log{\left(x \right)}}{\left(1 - x\right)^{2}} + \frac{1}{x \left(1 - x\right)}$$
The second derivative [src]
1     2*log(x)       2

           -1 + x          
$$\frac{- \frac{2 \log{\left(x \right)}}{\left(x - 1\right)^{2}} + \frac{2}{x \left(x - 1\right)} + \frac{1}{x^{2}}}{x - 1}$$
