Answer:
-82, -83, -84
Step-by-step explanation:
Using a variable and corresponding expressions, we can set the sum of the consecutive integers equal to -249 and solve:
first integer: x
second integer: x + 1
third integer: x + 2
x + x + 1 + x + 2 = -249
Combine like terms: 3x + 3 = -249
Subtract 3 from both sides: 3x + 3 - 3 = -249 - 3 or 3x = -252
Divide both sides by 3: 3x/3 = -252/3
Solve for x: x = -84
first integer: -84
second integer: -84 + 1 = -83
third integer: -84 + 2 = -82
