$\bf \qquad \textit{Compound Interest Earned Amount}
\\\\
A=P\left(1+\frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}
\quad 
\begin{cases}
A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\
P=\textit{original amount deposited}\to &\$9000\\
r=rate\to 6\%\to \frac{6}{100}\to &0.06\\
n=
\begin{array}{llll}
\textit{times it compounds per year}\\
\textit{semi-annually, thus twice}
\end{array}\to &2\\

t=years\to &9
\end{cases}

A=9000\left(1+\frac{0.06}{2}\right)^{2\cdot 9}$
