Answer:

-2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Log125(1/25)=x

Raise each side to the base of 125

125^Log125(1/25)=125^x

1/25 = 125^x

Rewrite 25 as a power of 5  and 125 as a power of 5

1 / 5^2 = 5^3^x

The if power is in the denominator, we can bring it to the numerator by making it negative

5^-2 = 5^3^x

We know that a^b^c = a^(b*c)

5^-2 = 5^(3*x)

Since the bases are the same, the exponents are the same

-2 = 3x

Divide by 3

-2/3 = 3x/3

-2/3 =x
