Mariyah Rocha · Answer 1

N + (n+2) + (n+4) + (n+6) = - 26

The first number is n, then the next consecutive even number is just 2 more than n, then the next even number is 4 more than n was, etc.

simplify the above expression to get what n is, then figure out what the rest are.

n = ?

n+2 = ?

n + 4 = ?

n + 6 = ?
