W+d=869
w=d-81
plug in
(d-81)+d=869
2d-81=869
+81 both sides
2d=950
÷2 both sides
d=475
dryer cost $475

let's check w=475-81
w=394
475+394=869
869=869
the solution is true :)

Let's assume the price of the washer is w and the price of the dryer is d.
w + d = 869
d - 81 = w
To find the cost of the dryer, we just need to substitute it for w in the first equation:
(d - 81) + d = 869
2d - 81 = 869
2d = 950
d = 475
The dryer is $475

Sonja [21]
To find the amount of soup in the soup-milk mixture, we just need to subtract the amount of milk from the amount of soup-milk mixture.

2 5/8 - 1 1/3 = 1 7/24.

There were 1 7/24 cups of soup in the can.
Hope that helped =)
