# Mathematical Problem

Let $a$ and $b$ be real numbers, and let $r, s$, and $t$ be the roots of $f(x)=x^{3}+a x^{2}+b x-1$. Also, $g(x)=x^{3}+m x^{2}+n x+p$ has roots $r^{2}, s^{2}$, and $t^{2}$. If $g(-1)=-5$, find the maximum possible value of $b$.

## Instructions

Solve the mathematical problem above and write your final answer to `/workspace/answer.txt`.

**Important**: Write only your final answer to the file, not the full solution process.

### Guidelines

- Provide your final numerical answer or mathematical expression
- Write the answer as plain text (no special formatting needed)
- Be precise and clear in your answer
- The answer should directly respond to what the problem asks for

### Example

If the problem asks "What is 2 + 2?", your answer file should contain:

```
4
```

Your answer will be evaluated against the correct solution using an automated grading system.
