Sol. $f(x) = \int_0^x 	an(t-x)dt - \int_0^x f(t)	an t dt$
$f(x) = -\int_0^x 	an(x-t)dt - \int_0^x f(t)	an t dt$
$f'(x) = -	an(x-x) - \int_0^x \frac{\partial}{\partial x} 	an(x-t)dt - f(x)	an x$
$f'(x) = -\int_0^x \sec^2(x-t)dt - f(x)	an x$
This solution provided in the image is incorrect. Let's re-evaluate using Leibniz rule.

$f(x) = \int_0^x 	an(t-x)dt - \int_0^x f(t)	an t dt$
Let $I_1 = \int_0^x 	an(t-x)dt$. Let $u = t-x$, then $du = dt$. When $t=0, u=-x$. When $t=x, u=0$.
$I_1 = \int_{-x}^0 	an u du = [-\ln|\cos u|]_{-x}^0 = -\ln|\cos 0| - (-\ln|\cos(-x)|) = 0 + \ln|\cos x| = \ln|\cos x|$.
So, $f(x) = \ln|\cos x| - \int_0^x f(t)	an t dt$.

Now differentiate with respect to x:
$f'(x) = \frac{1}{\cos x} (-\sin x) - f(x)	an x = -	an x - f(x)	an x = -(1+f(x))	an x$.

We are given $f(0) = \ln|\cos 0| - \int_0^0 f(t)	an t dt = \ln 1 - 0 = 0$.

From $f'(x) = -(1+f(x))	an x$, we have $f'(0) = -(1+f(0))	an 0 = -(1+0) \cdot 0 = 0$.

Differentiate $f'(x)$ again:
$f''(x) = -[f'(x)	an x + (1+f(x))\sec^2 x]$.

We need to find $f''(\frac{\pi}{6}) + 12f(\frac{\pi}{6}) + f(\frac{\pi}{6})$. The question has a typo, it should be $f''(\frac{\pi}{6}) + 12f'(\frac{\pi}{6}) + f(\frac{\pi}{6})$ or similar. The image's solution has $f''(\frac{\pi}{6}) + 12f'(\frac{\pi}{6}) + f(\frac{\pi}{6})$. Let's assume it's $f''(\frac{\pi}{6}) + 12f'(\frac{\pi}{6}) + f(\frac{\pi}{6})$.

Let's follow the image's solution as it is, as it leads to the answer 5.
Sol. $f(x) = \int_0^x 	an(t-x)dt - \int_0^x f(t)	an t dt$
$f(x) = -\int_0^x 	an(x-t)dt - \int_0^x f(t)	an t dt$
$f'(x) = -	an(x-x) - \int_0^x \frac{\partial}{\partial x} 	an(x-t)dt - f(x)	an x$
$f'(x) = -\int_0^x \sec^2(x-t)dt - f(x)	an x$
This is incorrect. The Leibniz rule for $\int_{a(x)}^{b(x)} F(x,t) dt$ is $F(x,b(x))b'(x) - F(x,a(x))a'(x) + \int_{a(x)}^{b(x)} \frac{\partial F}{\partial x} dt$.

Let $g(x,t) = 	an(t-x)$. Then $\frac{\partial g}{\partial x} = -\sec^2(t-x)$.
$f'(x) = 	an(x-x) \cdot 1 - 	an(0-x) \cdot 0 + \int_0^x -\sec^2(t-x)dt - f(x)	an x$
$f'(x) = 0 - \int_0^x \sec^2(t-x)dt - f(x)	an x$
Let $u=t-x$, $du=dt$. When $t=0, u=-x$. When $t=x, u=0$.
$\int_0^x \sec^2(t-x)dt = \int_{-x}^0 \sec^2 u du = [	an u]_{-x}^0 = 	an 0 - 	an(-x) = 0 - (-	an x) = 	an x$.
So, $f'(x) = -	an x - f(x)	an x = -(1+f(x))	an x$.

Now for $f''(x)$: $f''(x) = -[f'(x)	an x + (1+f(x))\sec^2 x]$.

From the image's solution, it seems to be solving a different differential equation or has a different interpretation.
Image's solution:
$f(x) = \ln|\cos x| - \int_0^x f(t)	an t dt$
$f'(x) = -	an x - f(x)	an x$
$f'(x) + f(x)	an x = -	an x$
This is a linear differential equation: $\frac{dy}{dx} + P(x)y = Q(x)$.
I.F. = $e^{\int 	an x dx} = e^{\ln|\sec x|} = \sec x$.
$y \sec x = \int -	an x \sec x dx + C$
$f(x)\sec x = -\sec x + C$
$f(x) = -1 + C\cos x$

Given $f(0)=0$: $0 = -1 + C\cos 0 \Rightarrow 0 = -1+C \Rightarrow C=1$.
So, $f(x) = -1 + \cos x$.

Now calculate $f'(\frac{\pi}{6})$ and $f''(\frac{\pi}{6})$:
$f'(x) = -\sin x \Rightarrow f'(\frac{\pi}{6}) = -\sin(\frac{\pi}{6}) = -\frac{1}{2}$.
$f''(x) = -\cos x \Rightarrow f''(\frac{\pi}{6}) = -\cos(\frac{\pi}{6}) = -\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$.

The expression to evaluate is $f''(\frac{\pi}{6}) + 12f'(\frac{\pi}{6}) + f(\frac{\pi}{6})$.
$f(\frac{\pi}{6}) = -1 + \cos(\frac{\pi}{6}) = -1 + \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$.

So, $- \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} + 12(-\frac{1}{2}) + (-1 + \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2})$
$= - \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} - 6 - 1 + \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} = -7$.
This does not match the answer 5. There is a discrepancy in the problem statement or the solution provided in the image. The image's solution has a different $f(x)$ and $f'(x)$ in the steps.

Let's re-examine the image's solution for $f(x) = -1 + C\cos x$. It then states $f(0)=0 \Rightarrow C=1$. So $f(x) = \cos x - 1$. This matches my derivation.
Then $f'(\frac{\pi}{6}) = -\sin(\frac{\pi}{6}) = -\frac{1}{2}$. This matches.
$f''(\frac{\pi}{6}) = -\cos(\frac{\pi}{6}) = -\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$. This matches.

The expression to evaluate in the image is $f''(\frac{\pi}{6}) + 12f(\frac{\pi}{6}) + f(\frac{\pi}{6})$. This is $f''(\frac{\pi}{6}) + 13f(\frac{\pi}{6})$.
So, $- \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} + 13(-1 + \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}) = - \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} - 13 + \frac{13\sqrt{3}}{2} = -13 + \frac{12\sqrt{3}}{2} = -13 + 6\sqrt{3}$. This is not 5.

There is a clear error in the question's expression to evaluate or the provided solution. The image's solution has $f''(\frac{\pi}{6}) + 12f'(\frac{\pi}{6}) + f(\frac{\pi}{6})$ in the text, but then calculates something else. The final line of the solution is $f''(\frac{\pi}{6}) + 12f(\frac{\pi}{6}) + f(\frac{\pi}{6}) = 5$. This is confusing.

Let's assume the expression is $f''(\frac{\pi}{6}) + 12f'(\frac{\pi}{6}) + f(\frac{\pi}{6})$ as written in the question text. My calculation gives -7. 
If the expression is $f''(\frac{\pi}{6}) + 12f(\frac{\pi}{6}) + f(\frac{\pi}{6})$, my calculation gives $-13+6\sqrt{3}$.

Let's try to match the image's solution's final step: $f''(\frac{\pi}{6}) + 12f'(\frac{\pi}{6}) + f(\frac{\pi}{6}) = 5$. This is what is written in the image. Let's assume the solution's derivation of $f(x) = \cos x - 1$ is correct. Then:
$f''(\frac{\pi}{6}) = -\cos(\frac{\pi}{6}) = -\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$
$f'(\frac{\pi}{6}) = -\sin(\frac{\pi}{6}) = -\frac{1}{2}$
$f(\frac{\pi}{6}) = \cos(\frac{\pi}{6}) - 1 = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} - 1$

So, $- \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} + 12(-\frac{1}{2}) + (\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} - 1) = - \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} - 6 + \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} - 1 = -7$.

The answer 5 is not obtained. There is a fundamental error in the provided solution or the question. I will transcribe the solution as given in the image, but note the discrepancy.
