Answer:
121
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
f(x) = - (x + 8)(x - 14) ← expand factors using FOIL
= - (x² - 6x - 112) ← distribute by - 1
= - x² + 6x + 112
Given a quadratic in standard form. y = ax² + bx + c : a ≠ 0
Then the x- coordinate of the vertex is
= -
f(x) = - x² + 6x + 112 ← is in standard form
with a = - 1 and b = 6, thus
= -
= 3
Substitute x = 3 into f(x) for corresponding value of y
f(3) = - (3)² + 6(3) + 112 = - 9 + 18 + 112 = 121
vertex = (3, 121 ) ← with y = 121

The result of simplifying the expression (x²/x⁻¹¹)¹/₃ using the exponent rules is (x¹³)
To solve this exercise we have to resolve algebraic operations following the exponent rules.
(x²/x⁻¹¹)¹/₃
Using the quotient rule that indicates that: the exponent result will be the subtraction of these exponents, we have:
(x⁽²⁻⁽⁻¹¹⁾)¹/₃
(x⁽²⁺¹¹⁾)¹/₃
(x¹³)¹/₃
Using the power of a power rule that indicates that: the exponent result will be the multiplication of these powers, we have:
x⁽¹³*¹/₃⁾
x⁽¹³/₃⁾
As we have a fractional exponent, you must convert the exponent to root:
(x¹³)
In mathematics an exponent is the number of time that a number, called (base) is multiplied by itself. It is also called, power or index.
Example: 3² = 3*3 = 9
