Let g(x)=log⁡f(x)g(x) = \log f(x), where f(x)f(x) is a twice differentiable positive function on (0,∞)(0, \infty) such that f(x+1)=xf(x)f(x+1) = x f(x). Then, for N=1,2,3,…N = 1, 2, 3, \dots, g′′(N+12)−g′′(12)g''\left(N + \frac{1}{2}\right) - g''\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) is equal to a. -4 \left\{ 1 + \frac{1}{9} + \frac{1}{25} + \dots + \frac{1}{(2N-1)^2} \right\} b. 4 \left\{ 1 + \frac{1}{9} + \frac{1}{25} + \dots + \frac{1}{(2N-1)^2} \right\} c. -4 \left\{ 1 + \frac{1}{9} + \frac{1}{25} + \dots + \frac{1}{(2N+1)^2} \right\} d. 4 \left\{ 1 + \frac{1}{9} + \frac{1}{25} + \dots + \frac{1}{(2N+1)^2} \right\}
