P = 2(L+W)
L = 8+W
P = 52 inches
52 = 2(L+W)
52 = 2(8+W+W)
52 = 2(8+2W)
52 = 16+4W
52-16 = 4W
36 = 4W
W = 9 inches
L = 8+W
L = 8+9
L = 17 inches

First, let the rectangle's width be w. With this representation, its length becomes w + 8. The perimeter of the rectangle is calculated through the formula,
                                P = 2L + 2W
where L and W are length and width, respectively. Substituting the known values,
                              52 inches = 2(w + 8) + 2w
The value of w from the equation is equal to 9. The length of the rectangle, w + 8 = 9 + 8 = 17. The length is 17 inches.
