Why does $ sometimes render as dollar sign successfully, but other times require escaping?

I used solely $ to write the dollar sign at https://math.codidact.com/posts/288038. As you can see, the $ rendered the dollar sign perfectly under the heading GOLD BALL DRAW.

But under GOLD BALL JACKPOT DRAW, some $ failed to render as a dollar sign, while some $ did.

On the same post, why does $ sometimes work, and sometimes fail?
