To find the value of xx, we need to simplify the expression using the rules of exponents.

The given expression is:

x=[213×823×654×3349−1×163]−4x = \left[\frac{2^{\frac{1}{3}} \times 8^{\frac{2}{3}} \times 6^{\frac{5}{4}} \times 3^{\frac{3}{4}}}{9^{-1} \times \sqrt[3]{16}}\right]^{-4}

Step 1: Express all numbers as powers of their prime factors (2 and 3).
8=238 = 2^3
6=2×36 = 2 \times 3
9=329 = 3^2
$\sqrt[3]{16} = 16^{\frac{1}{3}}
