<reasoning>

Equate the side lengths of the rhombus

\[

$$\begin{aligned} LM &= MN \\ 3x - 3 &= x + 7 \end{aligned}$$

\]

Solve for x

\[

$$\begin{aligned} 2x &= 10 \\ x &= 5 \end{aligned}$$

\]

Calculate the side length and perimeter

\[

$$\begin{aligned} \text{Side length} &= 5 + 7 = 12 \\ \text{Perimeter} &= 4 \times 12 = 48 \end{aligned}$$

\]
