Chapter 8, Problem 8.58PAE
Consider the relations specified in Problem and Exercise 8-53 i9. Assume that the
LEAGUE (LeagueID, LeagueName, LeagueLocation)
In addition, TEAM has an attribute TeamLeague. The following database operations are typical:
- Adding new players.
- Adding new player contracts.
- Updating player specialty codes.
- Updating city populations.
- Reporting players by team.
- Reporting players by team and specialty.
- Reporting players ordered by salary.
- Reporting teams and their players by city.
- Identify the foreign keys.
- Specify the types of indexes you would recommend for this situation. Explain how you used the list of operations described above to arrive at your recommendation.

Let the database has two relations P(a, b) and
Q(m, a, n) in which a is the primary key of the
relation P and m is the primary key of the
relation Q. Instance of P has 70 Tuples and
Instance of Q has 42. What is the maximum
number of rows in the new instance produced by
P Q? ( is natural join)
Write the proper sequence of activities for the design of a video rental database. (The initial ERD was shown in Figure 9.9.) The design must support all rental activities, customer payment tracking, and employee work schedules, as well as track which employees checked out the videos to the customers. After you finish writing the design activity sequence, complete the ERD to ensure that the database design can be successfully implemented. (Make sure that the design is normalized properly and that it can support the required transactions.)
Let us consider the following relational database.
Students(stuID, lastName, firstName, major, gpa)
Faculty(facID, name, deptName, rank)
Classes(classNumber, facID, schedule, room)
Enrolls(stuID, classNumber, grade)
The column facID of relation Classes that references the table Faculty,
The column StuID of relation Enrolls that references table Students, and
The column classNunber of relation Enrolls that references table Classes.
The following SQL statement is intended to add a record to the table Students. Assume that the entered value for each column is appropriate. In other words, there is no domain constraint violation.
INSERT INTO Students(stuID, lastName, firstName, major) VALUES('950555111', 'Anna' 'Smith', 'BSIT');
However, this statement does not work correctly. Briefly explain why and list the correct SQL statement.

The cardinality ratio depends on the real-world meaning of the entity types involved and is defined by the specific application. For the following binary relationships, suggest cardinality ratios based on the following description of the mini-world: Each BANK has a unique Code, as well as a Name and Address. Each BANK is related to one or more BANK-BRANCHes, and the BranhNo is unique among each set of BANK-BRANCHes that are related to the same BANK. Each BANK-BRANCH has an Address. Each BANK-BRANCH has zero or more LOANS and zero or more ACCTS. Each ACCOUNT has an AcctNo (unique), Balance, and Type and is related to exactly one BANK-BRANCH and to at least one CUSTOMER. Each LOAN has a LoanNo (unique), Amount, and Type and is related to exactly one BANK-BRANCH and to at least one CUSTOMER.

Database design often involves decisions about the storage of attributes. For example a Telephone Number can be stored as a one attribute or split into three attributes (one for each of the three hyphen-delineated groups of numbers in a Telephone Number (XXX)-XXX-XXXX, I.e (123)-456-7890). However, Telephone Number is usually stored in one attribute. The decision is usually based on how the database will be used. This exercise asks you to think about specific situations where dividing the Telephone Number is useful. List and describe the different situations, give examples.arrow_forward
