Let x and y be the 2 parts of 15 ==> x + y=15 (given)
Reciprocal of x and y ==> 1/x +1/y ==> 1/x + 1/y = 3/10 (given)
Let's solve 1/x + 1/y = 3/10 . Common denominator = 10.x.y (reduce to same denominator)
==> (10y+10x)/10xy = 3xy/10xy ==> 10x+10y =3xy
But x+y = 15 , then 10x+10y =150 ==> 150=3xy and xy = 50
Now we have the sum S of the 2 parts that is S = 15 and
their Product = xy =50
Let's use the quadratic equation for S and P==> X² -SX +P =0
Or X² - 15X + 50=0, Solve for X & you will find:
The 1st part of 15 is 10 & the 2nd part is 5

Answer:
Kindly check explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the formula :
Pn = 25.8(1.0219)^h to predict the population of Ghana ;
The equation given is in the form of an exponential function:
The general form of an exponential distribution :
y = ab^x
a = Initial value ; b = constant multiplier or growth or Decay factor
Comparing :
The number in parenthesis = 1.0219 = b
b = Decay or growth factor :
Since b > 1 ; then We have a growth factor;
b = 1 + rate
1.0219 = 1 + rate
Rate = 1.0219 - 1
Rate = 0.0219
Hence, the population is growing at a rate of about (0.0219)*100% = 2.19%
