Dirt holds moisture or water, the walls of an above ground pool are thin, yes you can put dirt around the walls, however the trade off is going to be you will shorten the length of life of the pool walls because they will rust away, so you are the one that needs to decide what you want to do, you can put plastic between the walls and the dirt or sand that will give you some extra time before the walls and frame rust away. Just a reminder from me the bottom of all most all above ground pools have dirt or sand around the bottom of the frames and a little bit of dirt on the walls you should get 5 years or a little more before the frame weakens or the side or a wall blows out. your warranty should disclose this information, or call a pool dealer in your area.

Can you find a reason why negative numbers were invented?

You need to have numbers that represent the idea of taking something away. If I pile up some dirt and consider the ground as level zero. Then the height of my hill is a positive number. If I dig a ditch, I must take dirt away. If the earth again is ground zero, the depth of my ditch can be given as a negative number. If my hill is 101 feet high, I use 101, but if it is 101 feet deep, I use -101. Other examples are owing money as a negative and earning as a positive. RAWR
