The remainder is -8.

We can use at least two approaches in answering this question. But the easiest way is to use the Remainder Theorem

According to the Remainder Theorem, if
(x - a)
is not a factor of
f(x)
then evaluating the function at
x = a
gives us the Remainder when
f(x)
is divided by
(x - a)
That is
f(a) = R


For the given question, we have

f(x) =  {x}^{3}  - 14 {x}^{2}  + 51x - 22
When this function is divided by
x - 7
The remainder is given by
f(7) = R
f(7) =  {7}^{3}  - 14( {7})^{2}  + 51(7) - 22
f(7) =  343 - 14( 49) + 51(7) - 22
f(7) =  343 - 686+ 357 - 22
f(7) =   - 8
Hence the remainder is -8
