The base is obviously greater than unity. Any base greater than 1 raised to a large power tend to infinity

I agree with elessar_iitkgp , the limit always tends to infinity in your case.

=exlnx
=elnx/(1/x)
By L.Hospitals
=e-x
=1/ex
=1/(finite number)infinity
=1/inf
=0

u can't use LH rule here coz logx/(1/x) is NOT INDETERMINATE form...for x approaching infinity...
