let number of hours be x

Celeste charges an initial fee of $5.00, and an hourly rate of $7.25.

C =5+7.25x...................(1)

Dora has an initial fee of $10.25, and an hourly rate of $6.50.

D=10.25+6.50x.................(2)

if the cost is same, equating equations (1) and (2)

5+7.25x=10.25+6.50x

7.25x-6.50x=10.25-5

0.75x = 5.25

x=7

so 7 hours is the answer

We can see that as the number of hours increase the charge also increase

Let x be the number of hours

The function denoting the scenario for Celeste

f(x)=5+7.25x

The function denoting the scenario for Dora

g(x) = 10.25+6.5x

Now we need to know the time or number of hours x, when both the functions will give us the same value , that is f(x)=g(x)

5+7.25x=10.25+6.5x

7.25x-6.5x=10.25-5.00

0.75x=5.25

x=\frac{5.25}{0.75}

x=7

Hence at 7 hours of instruction both the instructors will get the same cost
