Select the scenario that describes a top-down approach to data warehouse design.
Cathy’s Cards and Gifts, which has three stores, creates data marts for its sales, marketing,
and delivery departments to study the possibility of establishing a new store.
Connor’s Meat Market, which just opened, creates data marts to track the sale of each of the
following meats: beef, pork, lamb, and fish.
Crawford's Fabrics, which wants to expand its operations, combines data from the
purchasing and sales departments into a central database, to be divided into new data
marts as needed.
Cynthia’s Florals, which is dealing with debt, creates new data marts for the service,
delivery, and sales departments to develop a strategy to stay in business.
RATIONALE
Crawford’s Fabrics uses a top-down data warehouse design. It began collecting data, then
divided what it collected into data marts, as needed. The other answer involve a bottom-up
data warehouse design. Bottom-up design builds data marts from different departments,
then merges the data marts into a single data warehouse.

Identify the true statement about Windows tasks.
Users can only begin an application by clicking on the associated icon on the desktop.
The GUI controls the process for shutting down Windows.
Pressing the Windows key and the E key simultaneously is one way to end a program.
The Welcome screen lists the user accounts on the system.
RATIONALE
The GUI does not control the process for shutting down Windows. Pressing the Windows
key and the E key simultaneously will not end a program. Pressing the Windows key and
the E key simultaneously starts the Windows Explorer program. Although clicking on an
icon on the desktop is one way to start an application, the most common way to begin an
application is by accessing the Start menu. The only true statement is that the Welcome
screen provides lists user accounts on the system.

Dylan contributes some of his own research to an entry on Wikipedia, and includes a
citation for his recent book.
Allison makes a video of herself using sound effects that she clipped from the soundtrack
of a popular action movie to market her business.

cyberbullying into his own blog entry without citation. It is important to cite sources when
referring to the work of another.

use.
