AF is a candidate key of R3. Yes F equivalent to { A → BC, BC → E, B → D, D → A }4. the highest normal form of R is 1NF. The reason lies in that (1) it is not in BCNF, for A is not a super key but A → BCD. (2) It is not in 3NF for all candidate keys are: DF, AF, BF, so that primary attributes are ABDF. To A → BC, A is not a super key and c is not included in any candidate key therefore it violate rules of 3NF. (3) all attribute are atomic.Question 6 [9 points]1. conflict operation pairs (1)W 2(B)R 1(B) (2) W 2(B)R 3(B) (3)W 2(B)W 3(B) (4) R 1(B)W 3(B) (5) R 2(B) W 3(B) (6) R 4(D) W 1(D)2.
