Question

Evaluate the following limit: $\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow0}\frac{\text{a}^\text{mx}-\text{b}^\text{nx}}{\text{x}}$

✓

Answer

$\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow0}\frac{\text{a}^\text{mx}-\text{b}^\text{nx}}{\text{x}}$ $=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow0}\text{m}\frac{\text{a}^\text{nx}-1}{\text{mx}}-\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow0}\text{n}\frac{\text{b}^\text{nx}-1}{\text{nx}}$ $=\text{mlog a}-\text{nlog b}$ $=\text{log}\Big(\frac{\text{a}^\text{m}}{\text{b}^\text{n}}\Big)$
