1) Consider the relation T, with key and functional dependencies shown below. I. What Normal form is T in right now? Why? II. III. What actions would you take to normalize T to the next higher normal form (describe the steps)? Follow those steps you mentioned in the prior question to normalize T to the next higher normal form. Be sure to show all work.
