Business rules for this ERD graph?

### Business Rules Based on Crow’s Foot ERD

Given the following Crow’s Foot Entity-Relationship Diagram (ERD), the subsequent business rules can be derived:

#### Entity Descriptions

1. **CUSTOMER**
   - **Attributes**: 
     - `CUS_NUM` (Primary Key)
     - `CUS_LNAME`

2. **RENTAL**
   - **Attributes**: 
     - `RENT_NUM` (Primary Key)
     - `CUS_NUM` (Foreign Key)
     - `RENT_CHARGE`
     - `RENT_PAID`
     - `RENT_LATE_CHG`

3. **RENT_LINE**
   - **Attributes**: 
     - `LINE_NUM` (Primary Key, Foreign Key1)
     - `RENT_NUM` (Primary Key, Foreign Key2)
     - `TAPE_CODE`
     - `LINE_COPY`
     - `LINE_CHG_DAY`
     - `LINE_CHARGE`
     - `LINE_DATE_OUT`
     - `LINE_DATE_IN`

4. **TAPE**
   - **Attributes**: 
     - `TAPE_CODE` (Primary Key)
     - `TAPE_COPY`
     - `TAPE_NAME`
     - `TAPE_CHARGE`

#### Relationships and Graphical Explanation

1. **CUSTOMER generates RENTAL**:
   - A `CUSTOMER` can generate one or more `RENTALS`.
   - This is depicted by the line connecting `CUSTOMER` to `RENTAL` with a crow’s foot notation indicating a one-to-many relationship.

2. **RENTAL contains RENT_LINE**:
   - A `RENTAL` can contain one or more `RENT_LINES`.
   - This relationship is shown through the link between `RENTAL` and `RENT_LINE`, also with a crow’s foot notation pointing to `RENT_LINE`.

3. **RENT_LINE enters TAPE**:
   - Each `RENT_LINE` contains details about `TAPES`, indicating a one-to-one or one-to-many relationship where `RENT_LINE` entries are associated with `TAPE` records.
   - This relationship is represented by the line connecting `RENT_LINE` to `TAPE`.

#### Additional Notes

The primary keys (PK) and foreign keys (FK) are explicitly marked in the schema:
- `CUS_NUM` in `RENTAL` is a foreign
