Answer:

Hi there!

Your answer is:

7, 8, 9, 10

Explanation:

to determine this:

x, x+1, x+2, x+3 = 34

x+ x+1 +x+2 + x+3 = 34

Combine like terms!

4x +6 = 34

-6

4x = 28

/4

x = 7

SO:

plug 7 into your equation to determine integers!

7, (7+1), (7+2), (7+3)

7, 8 , 9, 10

I hope this helps!
