Solution

The correct answer is d. R(A,B), R2(B,E), R3(A,C), R4(C,D).

Here's the step by step explanation:

  1. The primary key is {A, C}. This means that A and C together uniquely identify each record in the relation.

  2. The functional dependencies are B->E and C->D. This means that B determines E and C determines D.
