is the answer 6?

well, 6 - 6 = 0 all right :)

so it the answer 6? pls help me

Yes, 6.

thank you

You're welcome.

To solve this problem, let's define a variable to represent Jess's score on the first day. Let's call it "x".

According to the given information, Jess's score on the second day was -6. The total score for both days was 0. This means that the sum of Jess's scores on both days should be equal to 0.

So, we can write the equation:

x + (-6) = 0

Now, let's solve this equation.

Adding 6 to both sides of the equation, we get:

x = 6

Therefore, Jess's score on the first day was indeed 6.
