Answer:
8 pieces of candy
Step-by-step explanation:
Take the original amount of candy in the bowl to be 
.
It says that 20 pieces of candy were added, therefore there are 
pieces of candy in the bowl.
Half of the candy is gone, therefore 
pieces of candy are left in the bowl.
After half of the candy is gone, there are 14 pieces left, so we can say that

Answer:
log_4(256)=4
log_4(1/1024)=-5
log_4(16)=2
log_4(1/256)=-4
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to write a number, x, such that
Log_4(y)=x.
In exponential form that is 4^x=y.
So first number is x=4.
4^4=256 which means log_4(256) is 4 as a logarithm with base 4.
The second number is x=-5.
4^-5=1/4^5=1/1024 which means log_4(1/1024) is -5 as a logarithm with base 4.
The third number is x=2.
4^2=16 so log_4(16) is 2 as a logarithm with base 4.
The fourth number is x=-4.
Since 4^4=256 then 4^-4=1/256 which means -4 as a logarithm with base 4 is log_4(1/256).
