\[\boxed{\mathbf{1344}\mathbf{.}}\]
\[1)\ 9^{5x} - 9^{5x - 1} = 8\]
\[9^{5x} \bullet \left( 9^{0} - 9^{- 1} \right) = 8\]
\[9^{5x} \bullet \left( 1 - \frac{1}{9} \right) = 8\]
\[9^{5x} \bullet \frac{8}{9} = 8\]
\[9^{5x} = 9\]
\[5x = 1\]
\[x = 0,2.\]
\[Ответ:\ \ x = 0,2.\]
\[2)\ 2^{x + 4} - 2^{x} = 120\]
\[2^{x} \bullet \left( 2^{4} - 2^{0} \right) = 120\]
\[2^{x} \bullet (16 - 1) = 120\]
\[2^{x} \bullet 15 = 120\]
\[2^{x} = 8\]
\[2^{x} = 2^{3}\]
\[x = 3.\]
\[Ответ:\ \ x = 3.\]
