Let the first be x.
\n" ); document.write( "The next consecutive integer must be x + 1.
\n" ); document.write( "Their sum is x + (x + 1) and equals -105...so
\n" ); document.write( "x + (x + 1) = -105
\n" ); document.write( "2x + 1 = -105
\n" ); document.write( "2x = -106
\n" ); document.write( "x = -53
\n" ); document.write( "x + 1 = -52 \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
