Answer:
first day = 5.05mm = 0.505cm
second day = 9.55mm = 0.955cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent first day
Let y represent second day
x + y = 14.6
x = y - 4.5
(y - 4.5) + y = 14.6
2y - 4.5 = 14.6
2y = 14.6 + 4.5
2y = 19.1
Divide both sides by coefficient of y which is 2
y = 9.55
Substituting value of y in the equation x + y = 14.6
x + 9.55 = 14.6
x = 14.6 - 9.55
x = 5.05
To convert the values in mm to cm you divide them by 10 since 1cm=10mm
