Let's take a look at what's going on:

Original parking lot:

Therefore, the original area of the parking lot would be

[tex]50\cdot40=2000[/tex]

Increasing x yards in each side:

The area of this rectangle would be:

[tex](50+x)(40+x)[/tex]

And we know that the school wants it to be 1000 square yards greater than the original area (2000). The new area would have to be 3000

Thus,

[tex](50+x)(40+x)=3000[/tex]
