L'Hopital's Rule

Hi;
Could someone explain how you would go about applying L'Hopital's Rule to the following limit?

I don't understand how they got some of the derivatives and how they were cancelled etc.

hi Shelled,

You'll find it here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L'H%C3%B4pital's_rule

xln(x) is about 1/3 of the way down the page and then your question uses this result about 1/2 way down the page.
