Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s represent the length of each of the three sides mentioned.  The length of the fourth side is 7 inches.  Adding the lengths of the four sides together yields 10 inches:  g + g + g + 7 = 10 (inches)

Then 3g + 7 = 10, or 3g = 3, or g = 1.  

This equation is OK, but there's no solution, since 3g or just 3 is less than 7.  With side lengths 1, 1, 1, 7, we cannot draw a quadrilateral.
