Answer:

c = 55 . . . . (no units for cost are given in your problem statement)

Explanation:

"t is the number of tickets" and "Marci bought 20 tickets", so we conclude t=20. Putting that value into the equation and doing the arithmetic, we find ...

c = 2.75·20 = 55

_____

We don't know if this is pennies or pounds, dollars or rupees or pesos or euros. No monetary units are mentioned in the problem statement given here.
