A.
x + y = 126 and 2.25x + 1.50y = 225.75 ; 49 hot dogs and 77 sodas.

B.
x + y = 126 and 2.25x + 1.50y = 225.75 ; 77 hot dogs and 49 sodas.

C.
2.25x + 1.50y = 126 and x + y = 225.75 : -283.5 hot dogs and 509.25 sodas.

The equations and the number of hotdogs and sodas sold are:  x+ y = 126 and 2.25x + 1.50y = 225.75 ; 49 hot dogs and 77 sodas.

Two equations can be derived from this question:

2.25x + 1.50y = 225.75 equation 1

x + y = 126 equation 2

Where:

x = number of hotdogs sold

y = number of soda sold

In order to determine the value of y, multiply equation 2 by 2.25

2.25x + 2.25y = 283.50 equation 3

Subtract equation 1 from 3

57.75 = 0.75y

y = 77

Substitute for y in equation 2

x + 77 = 126

x = 49
