1998 AIME Problems, 9

Two mathematicians take a morning coffee break each day. They arrive at the cafeteria independently, at random times between 9 a.m. and 10 a.m., and stay for exactly $m$ mintues. The probability that either one arrives while the other is in the cafeteria is $40 \%,$ and $m=a-b\sqrt{c},$ where $a, b,$ and $c$ are positive integers, and $c$ is not divisible by the square of any prime. Find $a+b+c.$

A straight cone is given inside a rectangular parallelepiped $B$, with the apex at one of the vertices, say $T$ , of the parallelepiped, and the base touching the three faces opposite to $T .$ Its axis lies at the long diagonal through $T.$ If $V_1$ and $V_2$ are the volumes of the cone and the parallelepiped respectively, prove that \[V_1 \leq \frac{\sqrt 3 \pi V_2}{27}.\]

A farmer wants to create a rectangular plot along the side of a barn where the barn forms one side of the rectangle and a fence forms the other three sides. The farmer will build the fence by tting together $75$ straight sections of fence which are each $4$ feet long. The farmer will build the fence to maximize the area of the rectangular plot.
