"When in doubt L'Hopital"
multiply and divide by x $$ \frac {(\Sigma a_n x^{n-N})^{1/N} - 1} {1/x} $$
l'hopital $$ \frac{(1/N)(\Sigma a_n x^{n-N})^{1/N-1} (\Sigma (n-N)a_n x^{n-N-1})} {-1/x^2} $$
multiply and divide by x^2 $$ (-1/N)(\Sigma a_n x^{n-N})^{1/N-1} (\Sigma (n-N)a_n x^{n-N+1}) $$
distribute the limit according to limit laws $$ (\lim -1/N)(\lim \Sigma a_n x^{n-N})^{1/N-1}(\lim \Sigma (n-N) a_n x^{n-N+1}) $$
only the strongest survive (x^0 terms)
You can work out the terms but these particular ones also have formulas. If it were other ones it would be harder and require pascal's triangle (binomial theorem).
