#512#

Explanation:

using the #color(blue)"power rule for integration"#

#color(orange)"Reminder " color(red)(bar(ul(|color(white)(2/2)color(black)(intax^ndx=a/(n+1)x^(n+1))color(white)(2/2)|)))#

#rArrint_-2^2(14x^6)dx=14/7[x^7]_-2^2#

#=2[x^7]_-2^2#

Evaluate the upper and lower limits and subtract upper - lower

#=2[(2^7)-(-2)^7)]=2(128-(-128))=512#
