Answer: -18, -17, -16
Step-by-step explanation:
What are consecutive integers? Consecutive integers are integers after one another without gaps.
Examples:
1, 2, 3
49, 50, 51
-22, -23, -24
They can be written as n, n + 1, n + 2, etc where n is the smallest value.
"Find three consecutive integers."
n, n + 1, n + 2
"The sum of the first and the third is -34"
(n) + (n + 2) = -34
2n + 2 = -34
2n = -36
n = -18
Answer;
-18, -17, -16
