Answer:

3 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can calculate the length, since it only moves on the "x" axis, since on the "y" axis, it remains the same.

We know that between -2 to 5, there are 7 units. 2 + 5 = 7.

Therefore this would be the length.

We know that the perimeter is equal to:

p = 2 * w + 2 * l

P = 20

20 = 2 * w + 2 * 7

2 * w = 20 - 14

w = 6/2

w = 3

therefore, the width value is 3 units.
