View Answer
Linux Driver Developer
Answer: d
Explanation: Third Normal Form deals with something called ‘transitive’ dependencies. This means if we have a primary key A and a non-key Linux Network Developer
domain B and C where C is more dependent on B than A and B is directly dependent on A, then C can be considered transitively dependent

on A.

6. In a given relationship R, if an attribute A uniquely de nes all other attributes, then the attribute A is a key attribute which is also known as
the _________ key.
a) Candidate
b) Join
c) Functional
d) None of the Mentioned

View Answer

Answer: a
Explanation: A candidate key is a column, or set of columns, in a table that can uniquely identify any database record without referring to
any other data. Each table may have one or more candidate keys.

7. Anomalies are avoided by splitting the o ending relation into multiple relations, is also known as
a) Accupressure
b) Decomposition
c) Precomposition
d) Both Decomposition and Precomposition

View Answer

Answer: b
Explanation: Eliminate redundancy by decomposing a relation into several relations in a higher normal form.

8. Every time attribute A appears, it is matched with the same value of attribute B, but not the same value of attribute C. Therefore, it is true
that:
a) A -> B
b) A -> C
c) A -> (B,C)
d) (B,C) -> A

View Answer

Answer: a
Explanation: Transitivity rule: Same as transitive rule in algebra, if a -> b holds and b -> c holds then a -> c also hold. a -> b is called as a
functionally determines b.

9. When the values in one or more attributes being used as a foreign key must exist in another set of one or more attributes in another table,
we have created a(n):
a) Transitive Dependency
b) Insertion Anomaly
c) Referential Integrity Constraint
d) Normal Form

View Answer

Answer: c
Explanation: Referential Integrity is set of constraints applied to foreign key which prevents entering a row in child table for which you don’t
have any corresponding row in parent table i.e. entering NULL or invalid foreign keys.

10. Which of the following is not a restriction for a table to be a relation?

a) The cells of the table must contain a single value
b) All of the entries in any column must be of the same kind
c) The columns must be ordered
d) No two rows in a table may be identical

View Answer

Answer: c
Explanation: To format the columns di erently, assign a unique alias to each column within the SELECT command itself (do not use the
ALIAS clause of the COLUMN command) and enter a COLUMN command for each column’s alias.
