Answer:

In 4 months Wyatt offer an equal number of sandwiches and tacos.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Types of sandwiches = 8

Rate of increase of sandwich = 1 per month

Thus, number of sandwiches in x months will be given by

[tex]n_1(x) = 8 + x[/tex]

Types of tacos = 4

Rate of increase of tacos sandwich = 2 per month

Thus, number of tacos in x months will be given by

[tex]n_2(x) = 4 + 2x[/tex]

Equating the two equations, we get,

[tex]n_1(x) = n_2(x)\\8 + x = 4 + 2x\\\Rightarrow x = 4[/tex]

Thus, in 4 months Wyatt offer an equal number of sandwiches and tacos.
