The relation schema, Person($\underline{\text{pid}}$, $city$), describes the city of residence for every person uniquely identified by $pid$. The following relational algebra operators are available: selection, projection, cross product, and rename.
To find the list of cities where at least 3 persons reside, using the above operators, the minimum number of cross product operations that must be used is
How many tuples will be returned by the following relational algebra query?

$$Q:$$ $$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,$$ $$r$$ $$\,\,\,\,$$ $$\bowtie$$ $$\,\,\,\,$$ $$\left( {{\sigma _{b < 5}}\left( s \right)} \right)$$
Let $$LOJ$$ denote the natural left outer-join operation. Assume that $$r$$ and $$s$$ contain no null values.
Which one of the following queries is NOT equivalent to $$Q$$?
Assume that $$R(A,B,C)$$ is the full natural outer join of $${R_1}$$ and $${R_2}$$. Consider the following tuples of the form $$(A,B,C): a = (1,5,null),$$ $$b = (1,null,7),$$ $$c = (3, null, 9),$$ $$d = (4,7,null),$$ $$e = (1,5,7),$$ $$f = (3,7,null),$$ $$g = (4,null,9).$$ Which one of the following statements is correct?
