The coordinates for point R will be (-1, -6). This is because a rectangle has opposite sides and as you plot your rectangle with these defines points along with that of R, you will be able to successfully achieve a perfect rectangle.
Let the number be x.
1st number = x
2nd number = x + 2
3rd number = x + 4
x + x + 2 + x + 4 = -9
3x + 6 = -9
3x = -15
x = -5
1st number = x = -5
2nd number = x + 2 = -3
3rd number = x + 4 = -1
Answer: The numbers are -1, -3, and -5
