NUMBER 1

To answer Question 1, we need to identify and transform the partial

dependencies and transitive dependencies in the given table into
normalized tables.

i. Identifying partial dependencies and transforming into tables in 2nd

Normal Form:

Based on the given table "Invoices (InvoiceNo, ProductNo, SaleDate,

ProductDescription, VendorCode, VendorName, QuantitySold,
ProductPrice)," we can identify the partial dependencies.

Partial dependencies:
- InvoiceNo → SaleDate, VendorCode, VendorName
- ProductNo → ProductDescription, ProductPrice

To transform these partial dependencies into 2nd Normal Form (2NF),

we can create two new tables:

Table 1: Invoices (InvoiceNo [PK], SaleDate, VendorCode [FK],

VendorName [FK])
Table 2: Products (ProductNo [PK], ProductDescription, ProductPrice)

ii. Identifying transitive dependencies and transforming into tables in 3rd

Normal Form:

Based on the current tables obtained from 2NF, we can identify the
transitive dependencies.

Transitive dependency:
- VendorCode → VendorName

To transform this transitive dependency into 3rd Normal Form (3NF), we

can create a new table:

Table 3: Vendors (VendorCode [PK], VendorName)

The final normalized tables in 3NF would be:
Table 1: Invoices (InvoiceNo [PK], SaleDate, VendorCode [FK])
Table 2: Products (ProductNo [PK], ProductDescription, ProductPrice)
Table 3: Vendors (VendorCode [PK], VendorName)

[PK] denotes the primary key, and [FK] denotes the foreign key.
