    Let the lemonades be represented by = h

    Let the hot dog be represented by = 86-h

    You can check this by : h + (86-h) = 86. (option B)

    If a snack cart sells lemonade for $2, it makes $2h for h sold lemonade;

    And the cart sells hot dogs for $5, the person makes $5 (86-h) for (86-h) sold hot dogs.

    In total the vendor gets $330, then equation becomes: 2h+5 (86-h) = 330.

    B is true since 86 - h = the number of lemonades sold, + h = 86. The other can't be true.
