Answer: Yes, The total price you pay is proportional to the number of tickets you buy.

Explanation:

  • We says there is proportional relationship between the quantities if there is increase in one quantity by increase in the other quantity or vice versa.

Given : A movie theater charges $10 and 50 cent per ticket and five dollars per bucket of popcorn.

As the number of tickets increases the total amount to pay increases.

Total amount to pay = Charge per ticket x Number of tickets.

∴ There is a proportional relationship between the total price to pay and the number of tickets.

∴ The correct answer is "Yes" .
