Using e to power in program, need help

[DS9596]

So I have this so far, not sure how to make dollars * e^(rate*time)

#include <iostream> 
#include <cmath> 
#include <iomanip> 
using namespace std;

int main()
{
    //declare identifiers 
    double rate = 1; 
    double time = 2;
    float dollars;
    float total=0.0; 

    //initialize identifiers
    total= pow(exp(1.0), rate*time); 

    cout << fixed << showpoint << setprecision(2);

    //Enter values
    cout << "Enter the money you want to deposit now(P): " << dollars;
    cout << "Enter the interest rate: " << rate;
    cout << "Enter duration in year(t): " << time;
    cout << "   Your balance after 5 years is " << total; 

    cout << endl; 

    //terminate program
    system("pause");
    return 0;
}

Why do you want to continuously compound interest? It is theoretical text book stuff, in practice, it should be simple interest formula.
