Answer: x = 4

==================================================

Step-by-step explanation:

Replace f(x) with 0 and solve for x.

f(x) = 3x-12

0 = 3x-12

3x-12 = 0

3x = 12

x = 12/3

x = 4 is a zero, aka root, of the function

---------------

Check:

f(x) = 3x-12

f(4) = 3(4)-12

f(4) = 12-12

f(4) = 0

The answer is confirmed.
