    Continuously

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Compounded continuously:

    A = Pe^ (rt)

    A = 11,000 e^ (0.0625 * 10)

    A = 20,550.71

    Compounded semiannually (twice per year):

    A = P (1 + r) ^t

    A = 11,000 (1 + 0.063/2) ^ (2*10)

    A = 11,000 (1 + 0.0315) ^20

    A = 20,453.96
