Question 1123705: Gilbreda listed 4 consecutive odd integers as she watched steam spew out. Her integers were such that the product of -4 and the sum of the 1st and the 4th was 10 greater than 10 times the opposite of the 3rd. What were the 1st 4 integers on her list?

This is very similar to another one just done, but with slightly different numbers in the description.

Review that one to know how this one works.

The current example:
Consecutive Odd Integers,
--
the product of -4 and the sum of the 1st and the 4th was 10 greater than 10 times the opposite of the 3rd.
--
system%28n%2C+n%2B2%2C+n%2B4%2C+n%2B6%29

-4%28n%2Bn%2B6%29=10%2B10%28-1%29%28n%2B4%29-----the literal description. Solve for n and find the other three integers.
