tickets to a concert are available online for $25 plus a one time handling fee for $1.75. The total cost is a function of the number of tickets bought what function rule models the cost of the concert tickets? Evaluate the function for six tickets.

The total cost of the concert tickets can be modeled as a function of the number of tickets bought.

Let's call the number of tickets "x".

For each ticket, the cost is $25, so the cost for "x" tickets is 25 * x.
Additionally, there is a one-time handling fee of $1.75, so we add that to the cost of the tickets.

Therefore, the function rule that models the cost of the concert tickets is:
Cost(x) = 25x + 1.75

To evaluate the function for six tickets, we substitute x = 6 into the function:
Cost(6) = 25*6 + 1.75
Cost(6) = 150 + 1.75
Cost(6) = $151.75

So, the cost of six tickets is $151.75.
