Is the equality correct?

30 Views Asked by At

Is it true that $f^k=(k-1)!/log^k(t)$ ? $k$ refers to the order of derivatives and $f(t)=logt$.If yes, then how can i show this? I've been doing different ways just to solve it but i cant get the right one. Can someone help me?

No, this is not the case. Notice that

$f'(x)=\frac1x$

$f''(x)=-\frac1{x^2}$

$\vdots$

$f^{(k)}(x)=(-1)^{n+1}\frac{(n-1)!}{x^k}$

So you were close, but not quite there.
