His score would have to be -5:

-3 + 3 = 0

0 + 1 = 1

1 + 4 = 5

5 + (-5) = 0

So you know that the su of all the scores is 0.

The scores in the table are cecilia -3, janine 3, sami 1 and ted 4 and travis x, where x is the number that we want to know.

if we sum those, we have : 3 - 3 + 4 + 1 + x = 0

and we get 5 + x = 0

then x= -5, so travis's score is -5 points.
