A movie theater charges $10.50 per ticket and $5 per bucket of popcorn. You never buy the popcorn because you think it's too expensive. Is the total price you pay proportional to the number of tickets you buy? Choose 1 answer: Yes No

Yes, it is proportional.

1) Gathering the data

ticket: $10.50

popcorn bucket: $5

2) Since the total price, would include ticket and popcorn, but I never buy popcorn then

1 ticket 10.50

2 tickets 21.00

etc.

3) As my total price, only includes tickets, then yes, it is proportional.
