A farmer wants to fence in a rectangular plot of land adjacent to the north wall of his barn. No fencing is needed along the barn, and the fencing along the west side of the plot is shared with a neighbor who will split the cost of that portion of the fence. If the fencing costs $16 per linear foot to install and the farmer is not willing to spend more than $4000, find the dimensions for the plot that would enclose the most area.

The temperature in Gavin's oven is a sinusoidal function of time. Gavin sets his oven so that it has a maximum temperature of 320°F and a minimum temperature of 260°. Once the temperature hits 320°, it takes 20 minutes before it is 320° again. Gavin's cake needs to be in the oven for 30 minutes at temperatures at or above 310°. He puts the cake into the oven when it is at 290° and rising. How long will Gavin need to leave the cake in the oven? (Round your answer to the nearest minute.)
