What is the inverse modular of a negative number

I'm working on Shamir secret sharing and i came across a part where i have



(-4)^{-1}(\mod 17)



I have never done negative number using inverse modulus so im kinda stuck




i tried changing it to



(13)^{-1}(\mod 17)



but it doesn't seem to work.
