Answer:

n = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

The side length of a triangle are n,n-3 and 2(n-2).

The perimeter of the triangle, P = 37 units

We need to find the value of n.

Perimeter = sum of all sides

n+n-3 +2(n-2) = 37

2n-3+2n-4 = 37

4n -7 = 37

4n = 37+7

4n = 44

n = 11

So, the value of n is 11.
