Draw an entity-relationship diagram that shows the relationships among a

E-R model:
- It is a tool for creating data model.
- It is used for developers to describe the content of data model by using two functions called entities and relationships.
Entity:
- It helps the user for tracking something in database.
- Example entities in student database system are Student, Grade, Course, etc.
Relationships:
- Entities have relationships among each other.
- For example, in student database, a Student has a relationship to Major and Student has a relationship to Advisor.
Attribute:
- It used to describe the entity characteristics.
- Example attributes of student entity is Student_id, Student_name, Student_address, etc.
Identifier:
- It is an attribute or group of attribute, but its value is related with one and only one entity instance.
Example of E-R diagram:
Explanation of Solution
Entity Relationship diagram that displays relationship among the database, database application and users:
The below is the E-R diagram that shows the relationship that is laid among the database, database application and users:
User:
The person or end user that can process the application that is stored in the database.
Database application:
A database application is a collection of four elements namely forms, reports, queries and application which acts as an intermediate between the user and data of the database
Database:
Database is a collection of information that is used to store and retrieve the data. Data is organized in tables.
Explanation of the E-R diagram:
- Many user can use the database application.
- Example of the user entity could be “students”, “faculty”.
- Many database applications can be present in a single database.
- Example of the database application could be “Bookstore”,”Library”.
- Only one database can contain many database application.
- Example of the database could be “studentDB”,”BookStoreDB”.
- The relationship between the user and the database application is “M:N (Many to many )relationship.
- The relationship between the database application and theDatbase is “N:1”(Many to One) relationship.

- what is a feature in the Windows Server Security Compliance Toolkit, thank you.arrow_forwardYou will write a program that allows the user to keep track of college locations and details about each location. To begin you will create a College python class that keeps track of the csollege's unique id number, name, address, phone number, maximum students, and average tuition cost. Once you have built the College class, you will write a program that stores College objects in a dictionary while using the College's unique id number as the key. The program should display a menu in this order that lets the user: 1) Add a new College 2) Look up a College 4) Delete an existing College 5) Change an existing College's name, address, phone number, maximum guests, and average tuition cost. 6) Exit the programarrow_forwardShow all the workarrow_forward
