Explanation of Solution

Economic growth is the increase in the per capita income of the economy. When there is country with the cutting-edge growth, it means that the country is in its right path of growth, and there will be a stable growth in the economy. But it is easier for the countries with catch-up growth to imitate the path that the country with the cutting-edge growth takes.

They invest more capital to achieve the cutting-edge growth which the catch-up countries will easily imitate. Thus, the catch-up countries will grow faster than the cutting-edge growth countries.
