Length, L = 3n + 2
Width, W  =  n - 1

Perimeter, P = 2*(L + W)

                   = 2*( 3n + 2 + n - 1)

                   = 2*(3n + n + 2 - 1)

                   =  2*(4n + 1)

                   = 2*4n + 2*1

                   = 8n + 2  

Perimeter = (8n + 2)

Perimeter, when n = 4,  8n + 2 = 8*4 + 2 = 32 +2 = 34

Perimeter = 34 inches.
