Answer

f is increasing in $(-\infty, \frac{7}{4})$ and f is decreasing in $(\frac{7}{4},+\infty)$

Work Step by Step

$f(x)=-2x^{2}+7x+14$ $f'(x)=-4x+7$ $f'(x)=0 \rightarrow -4x+7=0 \rightarrow x=\frac{7}{4}$ a<0 so we have: f is increasing in $(-\infty, \frac{7}{4})$ and f is decreasing in $(\frac{7}{4},+\infty)$
