A machine has four components a,b,c,d set up in such a manner that all four parts must work for the machine to work properly. assume the probability of one part does not depend on the functioning of any of the other parts. Also assume that the probabilities of the individual part working are p(a) =p(b)=0.98, p(c)= 0.91, and p(d)=0.93 find the probability that the machine works properly round to the nearest ten- thousandth
