Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

Perimeter = 80 feet

side 1 = n

side 2 = 3n + 7

side 3 = 3n + 3

Formula

Side 1 + side 2 + side 3 = 80

Solution

Substitute the length for each side into the equation

n + 3n + 7 + 3n + 3 = 80

7n +10 = 80                            Subtract 10 from both sides

7n + 10 - 10 = 80 - 10             Combine

7x = 70                                   Divide by 7

7x/7 = 70/7                             Combine

x = 10

Answer

Side 1 = n = 10

Side 2 = 3n + 7 = 3*10 + 7 = 37  

Side 3 = 3n + 3 = 30 + 3 = 33
