Evaluate: $$ \int_0^2\int_0^{2-x}(x+y)^2 e^{2y\over x+y}dy dx. $$

My attempt: I've changed the order and got this as $$ \int_{y=0}^2\int_{x=0}^{2-y}(x+y)^2 e^{2y\over x+y}dy dx. $$ and then substituted ${2y\over x+y}=t$ so the integral becomes $$ 8\int_{y=0}^2\int_{t=y}^{2}e^t t^{-4}\,dt\,y^3 dy $$ from here it's becoming very absurd. Please help me to solve easily from here onward, any other short cut will be very benefited. Thanks in advance.

By using the change of variables $$ u = y+x, \\ v = y-x $$ with inverse transformation $$ x = \frac{u-v}{2}, \\ y = \frac{u+v}{2} $$ then the domain can be expressed as $$ 0\leq u\leq 2, \quad -u\leq v\leq u $$ Taking into account that the Jacobian of the transformation is $J=1/2$, we have $$ \frac{1}{2}\int_0^2 du\int_{-u}^{+u} u^2\exp\left(\frac{u-v}{u}\right)dv = 2(e^2-1) $$

you can just take $t=x+y$ it becomes: $$ \int_0^2 \int_y^2 t^2 e^{\frac{2y}{t}}dtdy $$ change the order of integral : $$ \int_0^2 t^2 \int_0^t e^{\frac{2y}{t}}dy dt = \int_0^t t^2(\frac{t}{2})(e^2-1)dt=(e^2-1)\frac{2^4}{2\times 4} = 2(e^2-1) $$
