$\alpha$ and $\beta$ are zeroes of $p(x)$ such that

$\alpha+\beta=24$......(1)
$\alpha-\beta=8$.....(2)

adding equation (1) and (2) we get

$\alpha=16

similarly

\beta =8

So now we have

\begin{array}{l} \alpha+\beta=24 \\ \alpha \beta=16 \times 8=128 \end{array}

\begin{aligned} &\text {required polymomial is}\\ &x^{2}-(\text {sum of zeroes}) x+\text {product of zeroes}\\ &=>x^{2}-(24) x+128\\ &=>x^{2}-24 x+128 \end{aligned}
