What is the Appropriate weight for a seventeen year old?

I should know your length first to give you a specific answer. anyway, I'll teach you how to calculate your BMI ( body mass index ) and it will tell you whether your weight is appropriate for you or not.

BMI =

( kg/m² ) (weight in pounds * 703 ) ------------ height in inches²

OR

BMI =

( kg/m² ) weight in kilograms ------------ height in meters²

if your BMI is:

less than 18.5 ---> you're underweight

[18.5-24.9] ---> you're normal

[25-29.9] ---> you're overweight

[30-35] ---> you're obese

over 35 ---> you're morbidly obese

I hope this helps!
