Because A can uniquely identifies B each time.

So A->B. Option A.

Rahul said:   1 decade ago
A -> B means that, each value of A determines exactly one value of B. And B is functionally dependent on A.

Richa Chaurasia said:   1 decade ago
Because of every attribute of A will also match with B but not C.

And then value of A $ B will depend to each other.

A->B.

The functional dependency A->B states that the set of values present in A are also in the B so that's why it matches the values in the case of A and B but not with C.

As per the rule A->B means if A is true then B is true.

Value of B depends on value of A. i.e A is the determinant but B is the dependent.

Ouen said:   1 decade ago
Value of B depends on value of A; i.e. A is uniquely determined B
