Answer:

Looking at the problem we come across one issue where we have two minus signs. However, this issue can be fixed because for example if we multiply -1 by -1 we would just get 1. Therefore these two minus signs cancel out and we put a plus sign so our problem becomes -7 + 13. Now we just combine and we get 6.
