Question
Suppose we have three relations r(A, B), s(B, C), and t(B, D), with all attributes
declared as not null. Are there instances of r, s, and t such that the result of
r natural left outer join (s natural left outer join t) has a null value for C but a non-null value for D? Explain why or why not.

- Let's suppose, a relation R=(A, B, C, D, E. H) with a set of functional dependencies F: (AE->BC, B ->AD, CD->E, E→CD, A->E) is given. Relation R (A, B, C, D, E, H) is decomposed into R1 (A, B, C, D) and R2 (A, B, E, H). Find out whether the decomposition is lossless or not, and whether it is dependency preserving or not.arrow_forwardFor a given relationship set, R = {A, B, C, D, E, F} and FD : A->B, C->D, E->F . Calculate F+ of A, B, C, D, E, F and find the candidate key from this relationship. Do you think this relation is in 2NF form? why or why not?arrow_forwardAnswer correctlyarrow_forward
