Find the limit of $left(1+ frac{2}{n}right)^{n^{2}} exp(-2n)$ as $n to infty$.
$begingroup$
Find the limit of $left(1+ frac{2}{n}right)^{n^{2}} exp(-2n)$ as $n to infty$.
By expansion -
$$limlimits_{n to infty} left[1+(n^{2})(2/n) + (n^{2})(n^{2}-1)/2 dots ]/[1+2n+(2n)^{3}/3! dotsright]$$
I didn't get any result.
By applying limit directly, I'm getting indeterminate form.
How to find this limit?

Hint. Note that
$$left(1+ frac{2}{n}right)^{n^{2}} exp(-2n)=expleft(n^2logleft(1+ frac{2}{n}right)-2nright).$$
Now, by using the expansion $log(1+t)=t-frac{t^2}{2}+o(t^2)$ at $t=0$, we have that
$$logleft(1+ frac{2}{n}right)=frac{2}{n}-frac{2}{n^2}+o(1/n^2).$$
Can you take it from here?

@JohnJoy Yes, here we can replace $o(1/n^2)$ with $O(1/n^3)$, but $o(1/n^2)$ suffices.

$$left(1+ frac{2}{n}right)^{n^{2}} exp(-2n)=expleft(n^2logleft(1+ frac{2}{n}right)-2nright).$$
Now, by using the expansion $log(1+t)=t-frac{t^2}{2}+o(t^2)$ at $t=0$, we have that
$$logleft(1+ frac{2}{n}right)=frac{2}{n}-frac{2}{n^2}+o(1/n^2).$$
