Chapter 5, Problem 5.42PAE

Consider the relations specified in Problem and Exercise 8-53 i9. Assume that the database has been implemented without denormalization. Further assume that the database is global in scope and covers thousands of leagues, tens of thousands of teams, and hundreds of thousands of players. In order to accommodate this, a new relation has been added:

LEAGUE (LeagueID, LeagueName, LeagueLocation)
In addition, TEAM has an attribute TeamLeague. The following database operations are typical:

  1. Adding new players.
  2. Adding new player contracts.
  3. Updating player specialty codes.
  4. Updating city populations.
  5. Reporting players by team.
  6. Reporting players by team and specialty.
  7. Reporting players ordered by salary.
  8. Reporting teams and their players by city.
  9. Identify the foreign keys.
  10. 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.

The model above needs some improvement. Where you can apply all the normalization rules to attributes. Furthermore, you also need to explain entities and relations between them, and the purpose of attributes by showing why and how they exist ?.
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)
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.
