Final answer:

To determine f(-7), we substitute -7 into the function, yielding f(-7) = 16(14 + (-7)) = 16(7) = 112. The result of 112 is not listed in the given options, suggesting a potential error in the question or answers provided.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of f(-7) for the function f(x) = 16(14 + x), we simply substitute x with -7:

f(-7) = 16(14 - 7)

First, calculate the expression inside the parentheses:

14 - 7 = 7

Now, multiply the result by 16:

16 × 7 = 112

Therefore, the value of f(-7) is 112.

However, this result is not on the options provided which indicate there might be an error in either the computation or the set of answers given. The correct value calculated is 112, but it's not among the options A) -112 B) 0 C) 16 D) 224. One should recheck the question or the answer choices to ensure accuracy.
