It will always be negative, because negative times negative times negative is positive.  for example,  -1 x -1 x -1 = 1 x -1  = -1
So when finding cube root you find the number which can multiply itself three times to get the number.
Cube root of -8 is -2
because -2 x -2 x -2
             =4 x -2
             =-8
Thus all cube root of negative numbers are negative because negative times  negative times negative is negative.

Gerald's answer is almost correct.  

He just needs to switch the 14 and the x.

it should be

24/x = 18/14

solve for x by cross multiplication

18x = (24)(14)

18x = 336

x = 18.7
