Question 4 |
Consider the relation R(P,Q,S,T,X,Y,Z,W) with the following functional dependencies.
PQ\rightarrow X;\quad P\rightarrow YX;\quad Q\rightarrow Y; \quad Y\rightarrow ZW
Consider the decomposition of the relation R into the constituent relations according to the following two decomposition schemes.
D1:\quad R=[(P,QS,T);\;(P,T,X);\;(Q,Y);\;(Y,Z,W)]
D2:\quad R=[(P,Q,S);\;(T,X);\;(Q,Y);\;(Y,Z,W)]
Which one of the following options is correct?
PQ\rightarrow X;\quad P\rightarrow YX;\quad Q\rightarrow Y; \quad Y\rightarrow ZW
Consider the decomposition of the relation R into the constituent relations according to the following two decomposition schemes.
D1:\quad R=[(P,QS,T);\;(P,T,X);\;(Q,Y);\;(Y,Z,W)]
D2:\quad R=[(P,Q,S);\;(T,X);\;(Q,Y);\;(Y,Z,W)]
Which one of the following options is correct?

Thank You PRAFUL SAMBHAJI RANE,
We have updated this question.
qestion no 15 ans is incorrect
Ans is correct.
Ans is correct use 2^n-1 for single attribute candidate key, use (2^n-1+2^n-1-2^n-2) for double attribute candidate key
