Given that \(y^3 + x^2= 90\) and we need to find the greatest possible value of y lies between?
\(y^3 + x^2= 90\)
=> \(y^3 = 90 - x^2\)
Now we know that square of a number is non-negative
=> Minimum value of \(x^2\) = 0 when x=0
=> \(y^3 = 90\)
We know that \(4^3\) = 64 and \(5^3\) = 125
=> y lies between 4 and 5
So, Answer will be B
Hope it helps!

x^2 is positive so least value of x^2 = 0
y^3 = 90
3^3 < 90 < 5^3
Y lies between 3 and 5
y^3 = 90
3^3 < 90 < 5^3
Y lies between 3 and 5
