Answer:

  32x ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the garden plus patio is ...

  (x +8)² = x² +16x +64

The area of the patio is ...

  (x -8)² = x² -16x +64

The area of the flower garden is the total area less the patio area:

  (x² +16x +64) -(x² -16x +64) = 32x . . . area of the flower garden
