If a storm window has an area of 448 square inches what are the dimensions if the window is 12 inches higher than it is wide (w x h)?

Let the width of the window be ( w ) inches and the height be ( h = w + 12 ) inches. The area of the window can be expressed as ( w \times h = 448 ) square inches. Substituting ( h ) gives the equation ( w(w + 12) = 448 ). Solving this quadratic equation, we find the dimensions to be ( w = 16 ) inches and ( h = 28 ) inches.
