To match the equations with their solutions, we can solve each equation step-by-step:

  1. \(x^3 = -64\)

    • The cube root of -64 is -4.
    • Solution: -4
  2. \(x^2 = 25\)

    • The square roots of 25 are +5 and -5.
    • Solution: +5 and -5
  3. \(x^2 = 64\)

    • The square roots of 64 are +8 and -8.
    • Solution: +8 and -8
  4. \(x^2 = -16\)

    • There are no real solutions since the square of a real number cannot be negative.
    • Solution: No real solution
  5. \(x^3 = 125\)

    • The cube root of 125 is +5.
    • Solution: +5

Now, we can summarize the matches:

  • \(x^3 = -64\) : -4
  • \(x^2 = 25\) : +5 and -5
  • \(x^2 = 64\) : +8 and -8
  • \(x^2 = -16\) : No real solution
  • \(x^3 = 125\) : +5

Arranging these solutions according to the equations, we get:

  1. \(x^3 = -64\) : -4
  2. \(x^2 = 25\) : +5 and -5
  3. \(x^2 = 64\) : +8 and -8
  4. \(x^2 = -16\) : No real solution
  5. \(x^3 = 125\) : +5

You can now place these answers in the correct inputs for your question.
