Let x be the regular price of each ticket. The discounted price of each ticket is x - 1.50.

Dea buys 6 tickets at a discounted price, so her total cost is 6(x - 1.50).
Given that her total cost is $51, we can write the equation: 6(x - 1.50) = 51.
Simplifying the equation, we get: 6x - 9 = 51.
Adding 9 to both sides, we get: 6x = 60.
Dividing both sides by 6, we get: x = 10.

Therefore, the regular price of each ticket is $10.
