1. **Stating the problem:**
Solve the equation $$\sqrt[10]{\frac{x^2 + \frac{x}{y}}{}} = \sqrt[10]{\left(x + \frac{1}{x^2}\right)^5} \cdot \sqrt{x}$$ given in exercise 123, page 690.
2. **Understanding the equation:**
The equation involves 10th roots and square roots. We want to simplify and solve for $x$ (assuming $y$ is a parameter or constant).
3. **Rewrite the equation clearly:**
$$\sqrt[10]{x^2 + \frac{x}{y}} = \sqrt[10]{\left(x + \frac{1}{x^2}\right)^5} \cdot \sqrt{x}$$
4. **Express the right side as a single root:**
Recall that $$\sqrt[10]{a^5} = a^{\frac{5}{10}} = a^{\frac{1}{2}} = \sqrt{a}$$.
So,
$$\sqrt[10]{\left(x + \frac{1}{x^2}\right)^5} = \sqrt{x + \frac{1}{x^2}}$$.
Therefore, the right side becomes:
$$\sqrt{x + \frac{1}{x^2}} \cdot \sqrt{x} = \sqrt{x \left(x + \frac{1}{x^2}\right)}$$
5. **Simplify inside the square root:**
$$x \left(x + \frac{1}{x^2}\right) = x^2 + \frac{x}{x^2} = x^2 + \frac{1}{x}$$
6. **Rewrite the equation:**
$$\sqrt[10]{x^2 + \frac{x}{y}} = \sqrt{x^2 + \frac{1}{x}}$$
7. **Raise both sides to the 10th power to eliminate the 10th root:**
$$x^2 + \frac{x}{y} = \left(\sqrt{x^2 + \frac{1}{x}}\right)^{10}$$
8. **Simplify the right side:**
Since $$\left(\sqrt{A}\right)^{10} = A^5$$,
we get
$$x^2 + \frac{x}{y} = \left(x^2 + \frac{1}{x}\right)^5$$
9. **Final equation to solve:**
$$x^2 + \frac{x}{y} = \left(x^2 + \frac{1}{x}\right)^5$$
10. **Interpretation:**
This is a complex equation involving $x$ and $y$. Without additional information about $y$, the equation cannot be solved explicitly for $x$ in simple closed form.
**Summary:**
The original equation simplifies to
$$x^2 + \frac{x}{y} = \left(x^2 + \frac{1}{x}\right)^5$$
which is the key relationship to analyze or solve further given values or constraints on $y$.
**Answer:**
$$\boxed{x^2 + \frac{x}{y} = \left(x^2 + \frac{1}{x}\right)^5}$$
