Chapter 2, Problem 2.35PAE

Figure 2-27 represents a situation of students who attend and work in schools and who also belong to certain clubs that are located in different schools. Study this diagram carefully to try to discern what business rules are represented.

Chapter 2, Problem 2.35PAE, Figure 2-27 represents a situation of students who attend and work in schools and who also belong to
Figure 2-27 E-R diagram for Problem and Exercise 2-35

  1. You will notice that cardinalities are not included on the Works For relationship. State a business rule for this relationship, and then represent this rule with the cardinalities that match your rule.
  2. State a business rule that would make the Located In relationship redundant (i.e., where the school in which a club is located can be surmised or derived in some way from other relationships).
  3. Suppose a student could work for only a school the student attends but might not work. Would the Works For relationship still be necessary, or could you represent whether a student works for the school she attends in some other way (if so, how)?
  4. Based on the rules of the ERD in Figure 2-27, is it possible for a student to belong to a club located in a school that the student does not attend? Explain.
  5. Is it possible to determine which schools do not have any of their students belonging to any club in that school? Explain.

b. Draw an Entity Relationship diagram from each of the following descriptions. Include the attributes, primary keys (underlines) and the relationships in the diagram (like relationship in Access). i. Each of the department has many employees assigned to it, but each employee works for only one department. if. A customer can rent many videotapes from the video store. Each of the videotapes can be rented to many customers.
Please draw the ER diagram. Explain how you know which one is entity, attribute, and all constraints. Explain each step of the diagram.
Analyze the given entity relationship diagram and answer the following questions.   What is the degree of “has” relationship?
