The relational algebra expression equivalent to the following tuple calculus expression:

$$\left\{ {t|t \in r \wedge \left( {t\left[ A \right] = 10 \wedge t\left[ B \right] = 20} \right)} \right\}$$ is:
A
$${\sigma _{\left( {A = 10 \vee B = 20} \right)}}\left( r \right)$$
B
$${\sigma _{\left( {A = 10} \right)}}\left( r \right) \cup {\sigma _{\left( {B = 20} \right)}}\left( r \right)$$
C
$${\sigma _{\left( {A = 10} \right)}}\left( r \right) \cap {\sigma _{\left( {B = 20} \right)}}\left( r \right)$$
D
$${\sigma _{\left( {A = 10} \right)}}\left( r \right) - {\sigma _{\left( {B = 20} \right)}}\left( r \right)$$
