Provide an appropriate response.If $100 is invested at a rate of 6% compounded continuously, the amount in the account is given by: S = 100e0.06t. If the principal is invested at an account earning 6% compounded monthly, the amount is given by: S = 100 ? 1.00512x. Consider the difference in these two investments by graphing both functions on your graphing calculator and looking at the years 5 through 6. (Use the window
