Answer:

The dependent variable is y (the amount paid)

Explanation:

Given

y = 5x

Where

$x \to$ number of movies

$y \to$ amount paid

Required

The dependent variable

From the question, we have:

y = 5x

This means that the value of y is determined by the value of x.

Take for instance:

x = 2

The value of y will be:

y =5*2 = 10

If x changes (say; x = 12), y will also change

y =5*12 = 60

Hence, y is the dependent variable
