Answer:

Widyh = 8 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = 2/width+length)

then:

48 = 2(W+L)

W = L-8

W = Width

L = Length

then:

48 = 2((L-8)+L)

48 = 2(2L88)

48 = 2*2L - 2*8

48 = 4L - 16

48 + 16 = 4L

64 = 4L

L = 64/4

L = 16

W = L-8

W = 16-8

W = 8

Check:

48 = 2(16+8)

48 = 2*24
