The variable is t

t represent the cost of movie tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total cost = 7t + 4.50

The variable is t

Michael + 6 friends = 7 people

4.50 represent the cost of popcorn

t represent the cost of movie tickets

For instance,

If the cost of a movie tickets is $2

Then,

t = 2

Total cost = 7t + 4.50

= 7(2) + 4.50

= 14 + 4.50

= 18.50

Total cost = $18.50
