All patients suspected of having a particular type of cancer are tested by two separate labs. The probability that Lab A produces a positive test for any patient with cancer is 0.39, whereas Lab B is 0.35. If the probability that both labs simultaneously produce a positive test for any patient with cancer is 0.07, what is the probability at least one lab will produce a positive test? Round your answer to four decimal places.
