Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given figure, SM=27, DL=9, MA=15, LE=5 and ∠M=∠L=31°, we have to identify the similarity postulate that applies.Thus,

From the ΔASM and ΔDLE, we have

$\frac{SM}{DL}=\frac{27}{9}=3=\frac{15}{5}=\frac{MA}{LE}$

∠M=∠L=31°

Thus, by SAS similarity, ΔASM is similar to ΔDLE.

Hence, option C is correct.

The unit rate of the car is simply the average speed of the car between the two points.

The unit rate of the car is 40 miles per hour

From the diagram (see attachment), we have:

The distance between the two points is: 80 miles
The time spent to cover this distance is: 2 hours

So, the unit rate is:

$Rate = \frac{Distance}{Time}$

This gives

$Rate = \frac{80\ miles}{2\ hours}$

Simplify the quotient

$Rate = 40\ miles/hour$

Hence, the unit rate of the car is 40 miles per hour
