#4f +3#

Explanation:

Given that, the number of feet Jeff can throw the baseball be #f#
Nick can throw a baseball three more than 4 times the number of feet.
4 times the number of feet = #4f#
and three more than this will be #4f+3#

If the number of times Nick can throw the baseball is given by #x#,

then,

The expression that can be used to find the number of feet that Nick can throw the ball will be:

#x = 4f +3#
