Three consecutive even integers can be represented by x, (x+2), and (x+4).
(x + (x + 2) + (x + 4)) - 10 = -22 Get rid of the parentheses
x + x + 2 + x + 4 - 10 = -22 Combine like terms (x + x + x) and (2 + 4 - 10)
3x - 4 = -22 Add 4 to both sides
3x = -18 Divide
x = -6
Check you work.
x = -6
x + 2 = -4
x + 4 = -2
(-6 - 4 - 2) - 10 = 22
-12 - 10 = -22
So, your three integers are -6, -4, and -2 .

Step-by-step explanation:
It would be 8
because you have to multiply the exponent by each of the numbers exponents. you may not see it but 2 has a 1 as an exponent and so does r. 1 time 3 is 3 for each therefore each number now has an exponent of 3 and we got rid of the outside exponent. now all you have to do is simplify the 2 to the power of 3 which gives you 8 and that is all
