Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the breadth of the park is x and the length is x+8.

Area of the park =x×(x+8)=240

⇒x2+8x−240=0

⇒x2+20x−12x−240=0⇒(x−12)(x+20)=0⇒x=12(∵x=−20)

∴ breadth of the park =12m and length =12+8=20m

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

your answer is length =20 and breadth =12
