Answer:

c = 6 and d = 2

Explanation:

As the given equation is


\sqrt[3]{162x^cy^5}=3x^2y\left(\sqrt[3]{6y^d}\right)

Taking cube on both sides,


\left(\sqrt[3]{162x^cy^5}\right)^3=\left(3x^2y\left(\sqrt[3]{6y^d}\right)\right)\:^3


162x^cy^5=(3x^2y)^3(\sqrt[3]{6y^d})^3\\\\162x^cy^5=27x^(2*3)y^3(6y^d)....[(a^m)^n=a^(mn)]\\\\162x^cy^5=162x^6y^(3+d)....[a^(m)*\ a^n=a^(m+n)]\\\\\text{Comparing the power of corresponding variables}\\\\\ c=6\ ;\ 3+d=5\Rightarrow\ d=5-3=2

So, c = 6 and d = 2
