How do you show log x is convex? - Answers

Log x is defined only for x > 0. The first derivative of log x is 1/x, which, for x > 0 is also > 0 The second derivative of log x = -1/x2 is always negative over the valid domain for x. Together, these derivatives show that log x is a strictly monotonic increasing function of x and that its rate of increase is always decreasing. Consequently log x is convex.
