    The variables are:

    Matinee ticket ⇒ We can call this item as 'm'

    Drink ⇒ We can call this item as 'd'

    A bag of popcorn ⇒ We can call this item as 'p'

    One matinee ticket costs 6.50

    Two matinee ticket cost 2*6.50

    Three matinee ticket cost 3*6.50

    'm' matinee ticket cost m * 6.50 = 6.50m

    One drink costs 5.50

    Two drinks cost 2*5.50

    Three drinks cost 3*5.50

    'd' drinks cost d*3.50 = 3.50d

    One bag of popcorn costs 6

    Two bags of popcorn cost 2*6

    Three bags of popcorn cost 3*6

    'p' bags of popcorn cost p*6 = 6p

    The expression for total cost is given by

    Total = 6.50m + 3.50d + 6p
