Hints
Recall that **Set Cover** is a known NP-complete problem. How can you reduce **Set Cover** to **Set Packing** to prove NP-completeness?
Construct a polynomial-time reduction from **3-SAT** (a known NP-complete problem) to **Set Packing**, ensuring the reduction preserves satisfiability.
Given a **Set Packing** instance, design a polynomial-time verifier that checks if a proposed solution is valid, demonstrating that the problem lies in NP.
