Consecutive integers are numbers that follow each other op in order.
The four integers you're looking for are
-4
-5
-6
-7

This is because they add up to -4 + -5 + -6 + -7 = - 4 - 5 - 6 - 7 = - 22

x= 1st integer
x+1= 2nd integer
x+2= 3rd integer
x+3= 4th integer

Add the above integers and set equal to -22.

x + (x+1) + (x+2) + (x+3)= -22
combine like terms
4x + 6= -22
subtract 6 from both sides
4x= -28
divide both sides by 4
x= -7

ANSWER:
x= -7
x+1= -6
x+2= -5
x+3= -4

Hope this helps! :)
