Yes it should be:
  <td>0.1<td>

Tthe values within the <t> tags will be displayed. I need the
variables because changes to the values will be done only to the <ec>
tags.

Indulgences for an incomplete input file.

It's helpful if you post small but _complete_ input (that example is
missing a top level element) then people can test their answers.

Do you mean
<td>Z</td>
<td>0.1</td>
here (otherwise I have no idea where the 7 comes from).

Your requested output appears to just depend on the ec elements and not
at all on your t element, something like

<table>
<xsl:for-each select="ec">
 <tr>
  <td><xsl:value-of select="@X"/></td>
  <td><xsl:value-of select="@value"/></td>
 </tr>
</xsl:for-each>
</table>

It's not clear why you need any variables at all?
