To find the value of n that makes the equation true, we need to isolate n on one side of the equation.

Starting with the equation 13 - 2n = -109, we can first subtract 13 from both sides:

-2n = -109 - 13

Simplifying, we get:

-2n = -122

Next, we divide both sides of the equation by -2 to solve for n:

n = -122 / -2

Simplifying further:

n = 61

Thus, the value for n that makes the equation true is 61.

The correct answer is:

61
