Consider the following two relations for Millennium College:
STUDENT(StudentID, StudentName,
CampusAddress, GPA)
REGISTRATION (StudentID, CourselD, Grade)
Following is a typical query against these relations:
SELECT Student_T.StudentID, StudentName,
CourselD, Grade
FROM Student_T, Registration_T
WHERE Student_T.StudentID =
Registration_T.StudentID
AND GPA >3.0
ORDER BY StudentName;

- What is the difference between a PRIMARY KEY constraint and a UNIQUE constraint?arrow_forwardJOIN TABLES One row in the PAT_ENC table represents one patient encounter. One row in the ORDER MED table represents one medication order. One patient encounter can have many medication orders but one medication order can only have one patient encounter. In other words, the cardinality of this PAT_ENC to ORDER_MED relationship is one-to- many. You start a query with PAT_ENC. You then add ORDER_MED using an inner join. What is true about the granularity of the result set before and after adding the ORDER_MED table? SELECT ONE OF THE FOLLOWING A. The granularity stays at one row per patient encounter. B. The granularity stays at one row per medication order. C. The granularity changes from one row per patient encounter to one row per medication order on an encounter. D. The granularity changes from one row per medication order to one row per patient encounter.arrow_forwardConsider the following relational schema and answer the following questions. Employee (Employee_Id, First_Name, Last_Name, Email, Phone_Number, Hire_Date, Job_Id, Salary, Commission_Pct, Manager_Id, Department_Id) Write a query to get the difference between the highest and lowest salaries. Write a query to find the manager ID and the salary of the lowest-paid employee for that manager. Write a query to get the department ID and the total salary payable in each department. Write a query to get the total salary, maximum, minimum, average salary of employees (job ID wise), for department ID 90 only. Write a query to get the average salary for all departments employing more than 10 employees.arrow_forward
