    Answer:

    $450

    Step-by-step explanation:

    We know that the washer costs $51 more dollars than the dryer.

    The washer costs x+51

    The dryer costs x

    So to simplify this we can do this equation:

    2x+51=951

    Substitute and simply the equation, and you should get this:

    2x=900

    x=450

    Hope this helps! 🙂

    $900

    Step-by-step explanation:

    if the washer and dryer combined equal 951 and the washer itself equals 51 then all you need to do is subtract to get the cost of the dryer alone.
