Answer:

C) -144^¹/₃

Explanation:

Having a number to the power of a fraction is the equivalent of rooting by its reciprocal. So, the sixth root, fourth root, cube root, and square root. Only odd roots can have negative answers (∛x, x can be negative; √y, y can not be negative unless we talk about imaginary numbers).

Since we are looking for a real number, C, showing a cube root of a negative number, must be the answer.
