The correct answer is: -1

$\begin{aligned} & \text { area } \int_1^2\left(\frac{1}{x}-\frac{a}{x^2}\right) d x \\ & {\left[\ell n x+\frac{a}{x}\right]_1^2} \\ & \ell \operatorname{nn} 2+\frac{a}{2}-a=\log _e 2-\frac{1}{7} \\ & \frac{-a}{2}=-\frac{1}{7} \\ & a=\frac{2}{7} \\ & 7 a=2 \\ & 7 a-3=-1\end{aligned}$
