There is no one sentence answer.

Explanation:

Exponential functions are continuous on their domains, so you can evaluate a limit as the variable approaches a member of the domain by substitution.

For limits at infinity, use the facts:

For #0 < b < 1#,
#lim_(urarroo) b^u = 0# and #lim_(urarr-oo) b^u = oo# .

For #1 < b#,
#lim_(urarroo) b^u = oo# and #lim_(urarr-oo) b^u = 0# .
