False (*)

 
  2.   Which of the following is a valid reason for considering a Subtype Implementation?
Most of the relationships are at the supertype level.   
The resulting table will reside in a single database and be used by just ONE user.  
The common access paths for the supertypes are different.  
Business functionality, business rules, access paths, and frequency of access are all very different between the subtypes. (*)

 
  3.   The "Arc Implementation" is a synonym for what type of implementation?
Supertype Implementation   
Subtype Implementation  
Cascade Implementation   
Supertype and Subtype Implementation (*)

It contains three or more columns  
It is part of a primary key (*)

 
  5.   The explanation below is an example of which constraint type?
If the value in the balance column of the ACCOUNTS table is below 100, we must send a letter to the account owner which will require extra programming to enforce.

Entity integrity  
Referential integrity  
Column integrity

True  
False (*)


  7.   The explanation below is an example of which constraint type?

  10.   In an Oracle database, why would 1_TABLE not work as a table name?

True  
False (*)

 
  14.   One-to-One relationships are transformed into Check Constraints in the tables created at either end of that relationship. True or False?
True  
False (*)
