A crypto investment halves every 2 days. Is this an example of an increasing or decreasing relation?

How much will their investment be worth after 6 days if the account had $500 to begin with?

Answer: Decreasing, if it "Halves (cuts in half)". If it was increasing, it would probably say double.

Explanation:

So, if it was being cut in half every two days, we would only be counting days 2, 4, and 6.

So days 2, it would be cut in half, and go from 500 to 250. Day 4, it would go from 250 to 125. The day 6, it would go from 125 to 62.5.

In 6 days, the investment will be worth $62.50
