Answer:

-4

You can break this down and make it more simple by doing so:

Start with 3 + (-13)

This is the equivalent of 3 -13 because when you add a negative it just means to subtract.

3-13 = -10

-10 - (-6)

When you minus a negative, it creates a positive, reversing the effect, effectively creating -10 + 6

-10 + 6 = -4

Hope that makes a bit of sense
