Please help I don't even know how to move on from there
(logᵧx)² × 1/logₓy = -125
(logᵧx)² × logᵧx = -125
(Recall that loga b = 1 / logb a)
(logᵧx)³ = -125
logᵧx = ³√-125
logᵧx = -5
x = y⁻⁵
x⁻¹/⁵ = y
(logᵧx)² / logₓy + 125 = 0
(1/logₓy)² × 1/logₓy = -125
(1/logₓy)³ = -125
1/logₓy = ³√-125
1/logₓy = -5
logₓy = -1/5
y = x⁻¹/⁵
