See a solution process below:

First, evaluate the Exponent:

#11 - (color(red)(-3))^color(red)(3) =>#

#11 - (color(red)(-3) * color(red)(-3) * color(red)(-3)) =>#

#11 - (9 * color(red)(-3)) =>#

#11 - (-27) =>#

#11 + 27#

Now, evaluate the Subtraction to complete the problem:

#11 + 27 =>#

#38#
