    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
