Answer:

length = 10 inches

Explanation:

the perimeter (P) of a rectangle is calculated as

P = 2l + 2w ( l is the length and w the width )

here w = 14 and P = 48 , then

48 = 2l + 2(14)

48 = 2l + 28 ( subtract 28 from both sides )

20 = 2l ( divide both sides by 2 )

10 = l

then length is 10 inches
