Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the first integer

x+1 is the next integer

x+2 = next integer

x+3 = last integer

The sum of the 4 integers is -10

x+ x+1 + x+2  + x+3 = -10

Combine like terms

4x+6 = -10

Subtract 6 from each side

4x+6-6 = -10-6

4x = -16

Divide each side by 4

4x/4 = -16/4

x = -4

x+1 = -3

x+2 = -2

x+1  =-1

The integers are -4, -3, -2 ,-1
