    b. the market for wallpaper is in equilibrium.

    Explanation:

    Efficient allocation of resources means that the cost to produce the last unit of wallpaper and the benefit from that unit equals.

    It must be the case that the cost of obtaining the product (which is equal to the benefit to the buyers) is the same as the cost of producing the product. That is the price.

    The quantity where demand and supply meets in the equilibrium quantity (supply curve intersect demand curve)

    That's the market equilibrium, where the price and quantity that buyers are willing to buy and suppliers are willing to sell is the same.
