Question 948311: The city will pay to have soft pavement made of recycled tires installed in the playground. In the first plan, one side 8 yards longer than the other side. Which equations model the possible dimensions of the playground?
x(x - 8) = 256
(x^2) - 8 = 256
x(x + 8) = 256
(x + 4)(x - 4) = 256
x^2- 8x - 256 = 0 Answer by MathLover1(20849) (Show Source):

let one side be
if is yards longer than the other side, then the other side is
so, equations model the possible dimensions of the playground
