    In the next 10 years, the book will be worth $569.80.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    This is an exponential function. So use the formula A (t) = a (1+r) ^t.

    a = the initial amount

    r = rate of growth (interest)

    t = the time period

    A (10) = 220 (1 +.10) ^10

    A (10) = 220 (1.10) ^10

    A (10) = 220 (2.59)

    A (10) = 569.8
