Consider the following proposed rule for functional dependencies: If \(\alpha \rightarrow \beta\) and \(\gamma \rightarrow \beta\), then \(\alpha \rightarrow \gamma\). Prove that this rule is not sound by showing a relation r that satisfies \(\alpha \rightarrow \beta\) and \(\gamma \rightarrow \beta\), but does not satisfy \(\alpha \rightarrow \gamma\).
\(\alpha\) | \(\gamma\) | \(\beta\) |
