I think that's almost all correct. Either 4.99.... or 5.0 probably depends on the specific implementation. There has been a lengthy discussion about 3rd root and operators precedence not so long ago.
I've checked the inputs in two other Python interpreters, one on my Samsung Tablet the other on in Windows. They show the same results except that none gives a clear 5.0 like the (probably cheating) Prime.
But all return a valid result for pow(-125,1/3) therefor I'd think this MicroPython on the CASIO is not complete.
