Let

x -----> the cost of the washer

y -----> the cost of the dryer

we have that

x+y=944 -------> equation A

x=y+94 ------> equation B

Solve the system of equations

substitute equation B in equation A

(y+94)+y=944

solve for y

2y=944-94

2y=850

y=$425

therefore

The cost of the dryer is $425
