Problem
A
a finite set of instructions that accomplish a task.
B
Algorithms with exponential or factorial efficiencies are examples of algorithms that run in an unreasonable amount of time.
C

Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -2: An undecidable problem is one for which no algorithm can be constructed that is always capable of providing a correct yes-or-no answer.

Detailed explanation-2: -An algorithm solves a general class of problems. An algorithm describes a process that ends with a solution to a problem. The first electronic digital computers, sometimes called mainframe computers, consisted of vacuum tubes, wires, and plugs, and filled entire rooms. Informally, a computing agent is like a recipe.

Detailed explanation-3: -A decidable problem is a decision problem (one that has a yes/no answer) where an algorithm can be written to produce a correct output for all inputs.
