8. The problem ‘SET COVER gives two numbers n, k, and a family of n subsets of (,.. n It asks whether it is possible to select k of these subsets such that each number in (1,… ,n) occurs in at least one of the selected subsets. (8.1) Show that the problem ‘SET COVER’ is in the class NP (8.2) The simplest algorithm to solve set cover just tests all the possible choices of k subsets. How long will that take?
