You want to sell t-shirts for $12 a piece. It cost you $40 for supplies. Is the total profit proportional to the number of t-shirts you sell?

No, the total profit is not proportional to the number of t-shirts sold. The reason is that the cost of supplies remains constant at $40, regardless of the number of t-shirts sold. Therefore, as you sell more t-shirts, the profit will increase but not in a proportional manner.
Change the scenario in to be a proportional scenario.
