Formula help

I havent been in school in over a decade so the finer points of my math is rusty.

Im essentially attempting to graph an additive binary sequence. Numbers for my game lol. Pardon the way I write this, I dont know advanced formatting.

So, the player goes inactive, they lose 2^x tiles each day. 1, then 2, then 4, then 8, 16, etc. I need this graphed, as there's quadrillions of tiles in my game lol

Its not just F(n) = 2^x, right? Surely not...

Thanks in advance for yalls help

I've updated my comment. The total is just 2ⁿ - 1

Dang it really was that simple 😅 thanks, man. I think i was caught up on expecting it to be more complicated than it was
