Answer:
The original price of a skateboard is $64
Explanation:
Let
x ----> the original price of a skateboard
y ----> the new price of a skateboard
we know that
The linear equation that represent this problem is equal to
y=x-15 ----> equation A
y=49 ---> equation B
substitute equation B in equation A and solve for x
49=x-15
Adds 15 both sides
49+15=x
64=x
Rewrite
x=$64
