Verifying Carbon Projections: Common Base Exponential Procedure

An ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) compliance analyst is training junior team members on how to solve exponential carbon emission projection equations, such as 52x=125{}5^{2x} = 125, using a systematic four-step procedure. According to this standard protocol, what is the specific mathematical property that justifies setting the exponents from both sides equal to each other in Step 2, and what action is taken immediately after in Step 3?
