    \[\frac{d}{dx}\log (\sqrt{x-a}+\sqrt{x-b})=\]

    A)            \[\frac{1}{2[\sqrt{(x-a)}+\sqrt{(x-b)}]}\]

    B)          \[\frac{1}{2\sqrt{(x-a)(x-b)}}\]

    C)            \[\frac{1}{\sqrt{(x-a)(x-b)}}\]

    D)            None of these

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

               \[\frac{d}{dx}\log (\sqrt{x-a}+\sqrt{x-b})\]                    \[=\left( \frac{1}{\sqrt{x-a}+\sqrt{x-b}} \right)\frac{1}{2}\left[ \frac{1}{\sqrt{x-a}}+\frac{1}{\sqrt{x-b}} \right]\]                 \[=\left[ \frac{\sqrt{x-a}+\sqrt{x-b}}{\sqrt{x-a}+\sqrt{x-b}} \right]\frac{1}{2\sqrt{(x-a)(x-b)}}\]\[=\frac{1}{2\sqrt{(x-a)(x-b)}}\].
