show that if $x $ is an element of $\mathbb R$ then $$\lim_{n\to\infty} \left(1 + \frac xn\right)^n = e^x $$
(HINT: Take logs and use L'Hospital's Rule)
i'm not too sure how to go about answer this or putting it in the form $\frac{f'(x)}{g'(x)}$ in order to apply L'Hospitals Rule.
so far i've simply taken logs and brought the power in front leaving me with $$ n\log \left(1+ \frac xn\right) = x $$
