X - the fraction

17- 12x=\frac{1}{3} \times 17+6 \\
17-12x=\frac{17}{3}+6 \\
-12x=\frac{17}{3}+6-17 \\
-12x=\frac{17}{3}-11 \\
-12x=\frac{17}{3}-\frac{33}{3} \\
-12x=-\frac{16}{3} \\
x=-\frac{16}{3} \times (-\frac{1}{12}) \\
x=\frac{16}{36} \\
x=\frac{4}{9}

The fraction is 4/9.

Since (0,0) is a solution to the inequality as indicated by the shade, we know that since y=0 in the origin, 0 is greater than -1, so therefore A is the correct answer.
