Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Left = 2000 * (1/2)^x
Try it.
x = 1
Left = 2000 * (1/2)^1
left = 2000 * 1/2
left = 1000
x = 3
left = 2000 (1/2)^3
left = 2000 (1/8)
left = 250
x = 4
left = 2000 * (1/16)
left = 125
from her on the function does not work accurately. You have to modify the algorithm.
