It seems like you are providing a list of equations or expressions for the variable \( x \). However, I need more context or a specific question related to these values to provide a more tailored response. Are you looking for solutions to an equation, simplification, or something else entirely? Please clarify!

To solve the equation \( 8^{x+1} = 16^{2x-4} \), we can start by expressing both sides in terms of base \( 2 \).
We know that:
- \( 8 = 2^3 \)
- \( 16 = 2^4 \)
So we can rewrite the equation as follows:
\[
(2^3)^{x+1} = (2^4)^{2x-4}
\]
Using the property of exponents \((a^m)^n = a^{m \cdot n}\), we rewrite it:
\[
2^{3(x+1)} = 2^{4(2x-4)}
\]
Now we can simplify this:
\[
2^{3x + 3} = 2^{8x - 16}
\]
Since the bases are the same, we can set the exponents equal to each other:
\[
3x + 3 = 8x - 16
\]
Now, rearranging the equation gives:
\[
3 + 16 = 8x - 3x
\]
This simplifies to:
\[
19 = 5x
\]
Now, we can solve for \( x \):
\[
x = \frac{19}{5}
\]
Thus, the solution to the equation \( 8^{x+1} = 16^{2x-4} \) is
\[
\boxed{\frac{19}{5}}.
\]
We know that:
- \( 8 = 2^3 \)
- \( 16 = 2^4 \)
So we can rewrite the equation as follows:
\[
(2^3)^{x+1} = (2^4)^{2x-4}
\]
Using the property of exponents \((a^m)^n = a^{m \cdot n}\), we rewrite it:
\[
2^{3(x+1)} = 2^{4(2x-4)}

This simplifies to:
\[
19 = 5x
\]
Now, we can solve for \( x \):
\[
x = \frac{19}{5}

Thus, the solution to the equation \( 8^{x+1} = 16^{2x-4} \) is
\[
\boxed{\frac{19}{5}}.
