Limit(((3 + n)/(5 + n))^(4 + n), n, oo, dir='-')
Detail solution
Let's take the limit
$$\lim_{n \to \infty} \left(\frac{n + 3}{n + 5}\right)^{n + 4}$$
transform
$$\lim_{n \to \infty} \left(\frac{n + 3}{n + 5}\right)^{n + 4}$$
=
$$\lim_{n \to \infty} \left(\frac{\left(n + 5\right) - 2}{n + 5}\right)^{n + 4}$$
=
$$\lim_{n \to \infty} \left(- \frac{2}{n + 5} + \frac{n + 5}{n + 5}\right)^{n + 4}$$
=
$$\lim_{n \to \infty} \left(1 - \frac{2}{n + 5}\right)^{n + 4}$$
=
do replacement
$$u = \frac{n + 5}{-2}$$
then
$$\lim_{n \to \infty} \left(1 - \frac{2}{n + 5}\right)^{n + 4}$$ =
=
$$\lim_{u \to \infty} \left(1 + \frac{1}{u}\right)^{- 2 u - 1}$$
=
$$\lim_{u \to \infty}\left(\frac{\left(1 + \frac{1}{u}\right)^{- 2 u}}{1 + \frac{1}{u}}\right)$$
=
$$\lim_{u \to \infty} \frac{1}{1 + \frac{1}{u}} \lim_{u \to \infty} \left(1 + \frac{1}{u}\right)^{- 2 u}$$
=
$$\lim_{u \to \infty} \left(1 + \frac{1}{u}\right)^{- 2 u}$$
=
$$\left(\left(\lim_{u \to \infty} \left(1 + \frac{1}{u}\right)^{u}\right)\right)^{-2}$$
The limit
$$\lim_{u \to \infty} \left(1 + \frac{1}{u}\right)^{u}$$
is second remarkable limit, is equal to e ~ 2.718281828459045
then
$$\left(\left(\lim_{u \to \infty} \left(1 + \frac{1}{u}\right)^{u}\right)\right)^{-2} = e^{-2}$$

The final answer:
$$\lim_{n \to \infty} \left(\frac{n + 3}{n + 5}\right)^{n + 4} = e^{-2}$$
Lopital's rule
There is no sense to apply Lopital's rule to this function since there is no indeterminateness of 0/0 or oo/oo type
