Answer:

The original price of a skateboard is $64

Step-by-step 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
