Sore of 6 below par lol. But anyway, -6+x=0 where x is the score on the first day, -6 is the score of the second day, and 0 is the total score.

x-0.02t where x is the initial price. -0.02t is the price decrease per day.
After 7 days, the price decreases by (-0.02)*7=-0.14. A 14 cent price decrease!
