Answer:

d.The face value is below the equilibrium price because the rate in the secondary market exceeds the face value.

Explanation:

Equillibrumnprice is defined as the price at which a buyer is willing to buy and a seller is willing to sell a product.

The buyer is willing to buy the ticket at $457 and the reseller also wants to sell at that price, so this is the equillibrum price.

The face value is $259 so it is less than the equillibrum price.

The rate in the secondary market is determining equillibrum price in this case.
