Solution Steps

To solve the equation \(\log_{3} x = \log_{5}^{x^{2^{5}}}\), we need to understand the notation and properties of logarithms. The left side is a standard logarithm, while the right side seems to be using an unconventional notation. Assuming it means \(\log_{5} (x^{2^{5}})\), we can equate the two expressions and solve for \(x\). This involves using properties of logarithms, such as the power rule, and potentially converting the bases to solve the equation.

Step 1: Rewrite the Equation

We start with the equation given in the problem:

\[ \log_{3} x = \log_{5} (x^{2^{5}}) \]

Assuming \(2^{5} = 32\), we can rewrite the right side as:

\[ \log_{3} x = \log_{5} (x^{32}) \]

Step 2: Apply Logarithmic Properties

Using the power rule of logarithms, we can simplify the right side:

\[ \log_{5} (x^{32}) = 32 \cdot \log_{5} x \]

Thus, the equation becomes:

\[ \log_{3} x = 32 \cdot \log_{5} x \]

Step 3: Change of Base Formula

We can apply the change of base formula to express both logarithms in terms of natural logarithms:

\[ \log_{3} x = \frac{\log x}{\log 3} \quad \text{and} \quad \log_{5} x = \frac{\log x}{\log 5} \]

Substituting these into the equation gives:

\[ \frac{\log x}{\log 3} = 32 \cdot \frac{\log x}{\log 5} \]

Step 4: Solve for \(x\)

Assuming \(\log x \neq 0\), we can divide both sides by \(\log x\):

\[ \frac{1}{\log 3} = 32 \cdot \frac{1}{\log 5} \]

Cross-multiplying leads to:

\[ \log 5 = 32 \cdot \log 3 \]

Taking the exponent of both sides gives:

\[ x = 5^{32} \]

However, the solution from the Python output indicates that \(x = 1\) is also a solution.

Final Answer

Thus, the solutions to the equation are:

\[ \boxed{x = 1} \]
