Conceptual Overview: Explore the reliabilities of serial and parallel processes in a low reliability system.

In this system, the three component reliabilties are near $0\mathrm{.}90,$ yielding an unacceptably low overall reliability of the system of $0\mathrm{.}9*0\mathrm{.}89*0\mathrm{.}91=0\mathrm{.}729.$ Click on a component to change it to a more reliable parallel system and observe the change in the overall reliability. If the goal is an overall reliabilty above $0\mathrm{.}95,$ which components must be parallel?

A

$0\mathrm{.}9$

B

$0\mathrm{.}89$

C

$0\mathrm{.}91$

$0\mathrm{.}729$
