Please explain how I would figure this out

rate per period=.03/2=.015
So (1.015)^10=1.16054 (10 semi-annual periods)
Multiply by $18,000 to get $20,889.73
So (1.015)^10=1.16054 (10 semi-annual periods)

I'm coming up with $20,889.
A=P(1+r/n)^nt
n is the number of times you compound per year
A=18000 (1+ 0.03/2)^2*5
A= 18000 x 1.015^10
A= 18000 (1.1605)
A= 20889
A=P(1+r/n)^nt
n is the number of times you compound per year
A=18000 (1+ 0.03/2)^2*5
A= 18000 x 1.015^10
A= 18000 (1.1605)
A= 20889

A = P * (1 + i/n)^(n * t)
n = 2
i = 3% = 0.03
P = 18000
t = 5
A = 18000 * (1 + 0.03/2)^(2 * 5)
A = 18000 * (1 + 0.015)^10
A = 18000 * 1.015^10
A = 29320.1032819939453125
n = 2
i = 3% = 0.03
P = 18000
t = 5
A = 18000 * (1 + 0.03/2)^(2 * 5)
A = 18000 * (1 + 0.015)^10
A = 18000 * 1.015^10
A = 29320.1032819939453125
