Answer:

c. the sale may be rescinded, because the dealer has made a nonfraudulent misrepresentation.

Explanation:

Francisco bought the violin from a reliable dealer and he was not aware that the violin was imitated. When he discovered, he had already paid for the violin. In this case, the dealer who sold the violin to Francisco has conducted a nonfraudulent misrepresentation. The violin could be returned and the sale could be canceled.
