Question
Evaluate the following limit:
$\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow\infty}\Big(\text{a}^{\frac{1}{\text{x}}}-1\Big)\text{x}$

Answer

$\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow\infty}\Big(\text{a}^{\frac{1}{\text{x}}}-1\Big)\text{x}$
Let $ \frac{1}{\text{x}}=\text{h}$
$=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\frac{\big(\text{a}^\text{h}-1\big)}{\text{h}}$
$=\text{log a}$
