Find the real value of x satisfying the real equation above.
The answer is of the form 5 − b a , where a and b are co-prime positive integers, then what is the value of a + b ?
Note : Here x = { − 1 , 0 , 1 }

L e t a = 5 x , b = x 5 5 , c = 5 x 5 , d = x 5 , e = 5 0 . 5 ∗ x 0 . 5 . m = 5 0 . 2 ∗ x ∗ 1 Since on both the sides the base is 5, we equate the powers as under. a ∗ b ∗ c ∗ d ∗ e = 5 3 . 5 ∗ x 6 . 5 = 5 0 . 2 ∗ x . ⟹ x = 5 − 0 . 6 = 5 − 5 3 . a + b = 3 + 5 = 8
