Answer:
[tex]\large\boxed{x=-\frac{5}{6}}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) is the same value as y. Therefore, y = 17. We can place this into slope intercept form (except with a defined value for y) and solve for x.
Start by subtracting 7 from both sides. Then, divide by -12 to solve for x. Finally, simplify the fraction.
17 = -12x + 7
10 = -12x
-10/12 = x
-5/6 = x
