Let's denote the number of hours the violinist performs as "x". The total cost for the visit will be $75 for the visit plus $25 for each hour performed. Therefore, the cost for the visit can be represented by the function rule:
C(x) = 75 + 25x
To graph this function, we can plot the number of hours on the x-axis and the cost on the y-axis.
The x-axis can range from 0 to 6 since the violinist will only visit a maximum of 6 hours. The y-axis can start from 0 as the minimum cost for a visit is $75, and we can extend it to a reasonable maximum value based on the given information.
Here is a possible graph of the function rule C(x) = 75 + 25x

A violinist charges $75 for a visit and an additional $25 for each hour she performs.
If the violist will only visit a maximum of 6 hours, what is a reasonable graph of the function rule?
