Answer

Given,

log53 x=3x=(53)3x=[(5)13]3x=(5)13×(3)x=(5)1=15.\Rightarrow \text{log}_{\sqrt[3]{5}} \space x = -3 \\[1em] \Rightarrow x = (\sqrt[3]{5})^{-3} \\[1em] \Rightarrow x = [(5)^{\dfrac{1}{3}}]^{-3} \\[1em] \Rightarrow x = (5)^{\dfrac{1}{3} \times (-3)} \\[1em] \Rightarrow x = (5)^{-1} = \dfrac{1}{5}.

Hence, Option 1 is the correct option.
