If $y=lnleft(frac{x}{1-x}right)$, prove



$x^3frac{d^2y}{dx^2}= left(xfrac{dy}{dx}-yright)^2$



My Try



I was able to differentiate this expression twice without a truoble, but I'm having difficulty in obtaining 'y' in the second derivative expression. Please help.

          This is an exercise showing your given function satisfies the given differential equation!



          According to your equation, we need $frac{d^2y}{dx^2}$ and $frac{dy}{dx}$: $$frac{dy}{dx}=left(lnleft(frac{x}{1-x}right)right)^{'}=frac{1}{frac{x}{1-x}}cdotleft(frac{x}{1-x}right)^{'
          }=frac{1-x}{x}cdotfrac{(1-x)-x(-1)}{(1-x)^2}=frac{1}{x(1-x)}=frac{1}{x}-frac{1}{x-1}$$           $$frac{d^2y}{dx^2}=left(frac{1}{x}-frac{1}{x-1}right)^{'}=-frac{1}{x^2}+frac{1}{(x-1)^2}$$



          Plugging all of this into $x^3cdotfrac{d^2y}{dx^2}=left(xfrac{dy}{dx}-yright)^2$: $$x^3left(-frac{1}{x^2}+frac{1}{(x-1)^2}right)=^?left(xleft(frac{1}{x}-frac{1}{x-1}right)-lnleft(frac{x}{1-x}right)right)^2$$ $$-x+frac{x^3}{(x-1)^2}=^?left(1-frac{x}{x-1}-lnleft(frac{x}{1-x}right)right)^2$$



          However the above relation can't be true since a rational function and polynomial are on the left while a logarithm is on the RHS.

            I do not think the statement to be proven is true. We clearly have
            $$y=ln x-ln(1-x),$$
            and so
            $$y'=frac 1x+frac{1}{1-x},,,,,y''=-frac{1}{x^2}+frac{1}{(1-x)^2}.$$
            Let $x=1/2$. Then it is easy to see that the LHS is
            $$x^3 y''=0$$
            but the RHS is
            $$(xy'-y)^2=left(frac 12times 4-0right)^2=4.$$

                              Can a sorcerer learn a 5th-level spell early by creating spell slots using the Font of Magic feature?

                              28 6 $begingroup$ Per the Font of Magic feature, sorcerer can use Flexible Casting to create 5th-level spell slots at level 7, even though they are not typically available until level 9. You can transform unexpended sorcery points into one spell slot as a bonus action on your turn. The Creating Spell Slots table shows the cost of creating a spell slot of [5th level is 7] If such a sorcerer levels up while still having this 5th-level spell slot, can they choose a 5th-level spell as the spell they gain upon levelling up? The Spellcasting feature states: Additionally, when you gain a level in this class, you can choose one of the sorcerer spells you know and replace it with another spell from the sorcerer spell list, which also must be of a level for which you have spell slots.

                              mat-slide-toggle shouldn't change it's state when I click cancel in confirmation window

                              Image
                              1 When I checked the slide toggle it should work as expected. But when I try to uncheck it there is a confirmation window asking if you are sure. When I click cancel in that confirmation window, still the toggle changes to unchecked, which shouldn't happen. It should stay in the same state. Here is my Html and TS Code // html <mat-slide-toggle (change)="change($event)" [checked]="isChecked()" > To-pay </mat-slide-toggle> TS code: // ts change(e) { if(this.checked) { if(confirm("Are you sure")) { console.log("toggle") } else { e.stopPropagation(); console.log("toggle should not change if I click the cancel button") }
