Let

y=x1x,x>0
  1. Show that

    dydx=y(1lnx)x2
  2. Find the exact value of

    d2ydx2

    at the maximum point of the curve.


Start by taking ln of both sides of the equation. After simplifying the right-hand side, you can now use implicit differentiation.


The answer can be given in the form

κeλ+eμ,κ,λ,μZ

Give the value of

κ+λ+μ
