- A candidate key is a characteristic that is part of a composite primary key.arrow_forwardWhat is a primary key?arrow_forward. Students(stulD, lastName, firstName, major, credits) Faculty (facID, name, deptName, rank) • Classes(classNumber, facID, schedule, room) • Enrolls(stulD, classNumber, grade) The primary keys are underlined. The referential integrity constraints are as follows: . the column facID of relation Classes that references table Faculty, . the column stulD of relation Enrolls that references table Students, and the column classNumber of relation Enrolls that references table Classes. The following query is intended to retrieve the number of all classes taught by John Smith in the CST department. However, this query does not work properly. There are at least two faculty members who share the name, John Smith. Briefly explain and show the corrected SQL query_ why. SELECT classNumber FROM Classes WHERE facID= (SELECT facID FROM Faculty WHERE name='John Smith' AND deptName='CST');arrow_forward

Both directions.arrow_forwardSELECT P.BRAND_ID, B.BRAND_NAME, B.BRAND_TYPE,MAX(AVGPRICE) FROM LGPRODUCT P INNER JOIN LGBRAND B ON P.BRAND_ID = B.BRAND_ID (SELECT P.BRAND_ID, AVG (P.PROD_PRICE) AS AVGPRICE FROM LGPRODUCT P GROUP BY P.BRAND_ID)AS AVG_PRICE GROUP BY P.BRAND_ID, B.BRAND_NAME, B.BRAND_TYPE ERROR 1064 (42000) at line 1: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'SELECT P.BRAND_ID, AVG (P.PROD_PRICE) AS AVGPRICE FROM LGPRODUCT P GROUP BY P.' at line 3arrow_forwardHow is a composite key different than a single key? a) It can be referenced by a forign key b) It cannot contain null values c) It is made of multiple columns c) It contains only unique valuesarrow_forward
- There is a potential key for one of the components of a composite primary key. What would be your response if you found out this?arrow_forwardA composite primary key possesses a candidate key attribute. What is your reaction to the aforementioned data?arrow_forwardQUESTION 3 A functor is a function symbol that names the relationship, but the name can be anything as long as it's a valid identifier.
