Chapter 2, Problem 2.32PAE
Figure 2-26 shows a grade report that is mailed to students at the end of each semester. Prepare an ERD reflecting the data contained in the grade report. Assume that each course is taught by one instructor. Also, draw this data model using the tool you have been told to use in the course. Explain what you chose for the identifier of each entity type on your ERD.

Be sure that each entity has the entity name at the top of the box, the primary key attribute or attributes in the middle of the box, and the non-key attributes in the bottom of the box. Lines should separate each part of the entity box. Follow these instructions about each ERD: ● The ERD must not have any many-to-many (m:n) relationships. ● All attributes must be placed within an entity. ● Each entity must have a primary key defined. A primary key can consist of one or more attributes. ● Each relationship must have a foreign key. Denote the foreign key(s) with the notation (FK) on the ERD. Remember that in a one-to-many relationship, the foreign key is placed in the entity that is on the many side of the relationship. ● Each relationship must include both a maximum and minimum cardinality for both sides of the relationship. ● Each relationship should have a verb or verb phrase to describe it.
