Let's assume the regular price of each ticket is p.
The discount given is $1.50 off, so the sale price of each ticket is (p - $1.50).
Dea buys 6 tickets, so her total cost would be 6 times the sale price of each ticket, which is 6(p - $1.50).
According to the problem, her total cost is $51.
Therefore, we can write the equation 6(p - $1.50) = $51.
Simplifying the equation, 6p - 9 = $51.
Adding 9 to both sides, 6p = $60.
Dividing both sides by 6, we get p = $10.
Therefore, the regular price of each ticket is $10.
In simpler terms, if the regular price of each ticket was $10, Dea would have saved $1.50 on each ticket, and when she bought 6 tickets, her total cost would be $51.
Tickets to the baseball game are on sale for $1.50 off the regular price. Dea buys 6 tickets. If her total cost is $51, what is the regular price of each ticket?
