Let's solve each problem one by one from the image provided. I'll focus on each inequality and logarithmic equation.

---

### Problem 492
\[
\log_4 (4x - 4) \leq \log_2 x \quad \text{with the restriction } x > 1
\]

1. Rewrite \(\log_4 (4x - 4)\) as \(\frac{\log_2 (4x - 4)}{2}\):
   \[
   \frac{\log_2 (4x - 4)}{2} \leq \log_2 x
   \]

2. Multiply both sides by 2:
   \[
   \log_2 (4x - 4) \leq 2 \log_2 x
   \]

3. Rewrite \(2 \log_2 x\) as \(\log_2 x^2\):
   \[
   \log_2 (4x - 4) \leq \log_2 x^2
   \]

4. Since the logarithmic function is increasing, we can remove the logs:
   \[
   4x - 4 \leq x^2
   \]

5. Rearrange this inequality:
   \[
   x^2 - 4x + 4 \geq 0
   \]

6. Factor:
   \[
   (x - 2)^2 \geq 0
   \]

Since \((x - 2)^2 \geq 0\) is true for all \(x\), the solution under the constraint \(x > 1\) is:
\[
x > 1
\]

### Problem 493
\[
\left( \log_{1/4} x \right)^2 + \frac{5}{2} \log_{1/4} x > \frac{3}{2} \quad \text{with } 0 < x < \frac{1}{2} \text{ or } x > 64
\]

1. Let \(y = \log_{1/4} x\), then the equation becomes:
   \[
   y^2 + \frac{5}{2} y > \frac{3}{2}
   \]

2. Rearrange this as a quadratic inequality:
   \[
   y^2 + \frac{5}{2} y - \frac{3}{2} > 0
   \]

3. Solve the quadratic inequality for \(y\) using the quadratic formula:
   \[
   y = \frac{-\frac{5}{2} \pm \sqrt{\left(\frac{5}{2}\right)^2 + 4 \cdot \frac{3}{2}}}{2}
   \]

Solving this will give values of \(y\), which you can then substitute back for \(x\).

### Problem 494
\[
\frac{1}{\log x} - 3 \log x < 2 \quad \text{with } \frac{1}{10} < x < 1 \text{ or } x > \sqrt[3]{10}
\]

This is a complex inequality involving both \(\log x\) and \(\frac{1}{\log x}\). We can let \(y = \log x\) and rewrite it as:
\[
\frac{1}{y} - 3y < 2
\]
Then solve for \(y\) and back-substitute for \(x\).

---

### Problem 495
\[
\log (3 - x)^2 - 2 \log (4 + x) < 0 \quad \text{with } x > -\frac{1}{2} \text{ and } x \neq 3
\]

1. Simplify using logarithmic properties:
   \[
   2 \log (3 - x) - 2 \log (4 + x) < 0
   \]

2. Factor out the 2:
   \[
   2 (\log (3 - x) - \log (4 + x)) < 0
   \]

3. Simplify further:
   \[
   \log \frac{3 - x}{4 + x} < 0
   \]

Then solve for \(x\) from this inequality.

---

### Problem 496
\[
\log_{1/3} (2x + 8) \geq \log_{1/3} (6x - 1) \quad \text{with } x \geq \frac{1}{2}
\]

Since \(\log_{1/3}\) is a decreasing function, we can reverse the inequality:
\[
2x + 8 \leq 6x - 1
\]
Then solve for \(x\).
