Explanation of Solution
a.
- Mention a query as a manager of Denver plant to know the amount of time employees are spending on special project:
To know the amount of time employees are spending on special project can be answered directly by the Denver Sum query which is accurate, relevant and sufficient. The answer to amount of time employees are spending on special project can also be answered by the Plant Sum query for Denver and the other two plants.
- Mention a query as a manager of Reno plant to find the amount of time employees are spending on special projects:
There is not a single query that answers the amount of time employees are spending on special project directly; however, Plant sum query can answer this question. Plant sum query is accurate and sufficient but adds extra information as it calculates the total hours for Denver and Chicago plants also.
- Mention a query to know how much time employees are spending on Quota Computation project:
The total amount of time employees are working on Quota computation project can be calculated using Sorted Query 1. These query lists the total hours worked by employees in quota computation project in Chicago project which can be manually added to find the total hours spend on quota computation project by Chicago plant employees. Here the data is sufficient but needs manipulation to produce relevant result and hence accuracy is questionable. The data is sufficient as there is information in the query that is not really needed.
- Mention a query to find the number of hours worked by employees in the quota computation project in all three plants:
To find the number of hours worked by employees in the quota computation project in all three plants cannot be answered directly by any query...

- using r languagearrow_forwardThe assignment here is to write an app using a database named CIT321 with a collection named students; we will provide a CSV file of the data. You need to use Vue.js to display 2 pages. You should know that this assignment is similar, all too similar in fact, to the cars4sale2 example in the lecture notes for Vue.js 2. You should study that program first. If you figure out cars4sale2, then program 6 will be extremely straightforward. It is not my intent do drop a ton of new material here in the last few days of class. The database contains 51 documents. The first rows of the CSV file look like this: sid last_name 1 Astaire first_name Humphrey CIT major hrs_attempted gpa_points 10 34 2 Bacall Katharine EET 40 128 3 Bergman Bette EET 42 97 4 Bogart Cary CIT 11 33 5 Brando James WEB 59 183 6 Cagney Marlon CIT 13 40 GPA is calculated as gpa_points divided by hrs_attempted.
