Answer:

Demonstrating nonverbal Congruency

Step-by-step explanation:

Molly is agreeing with her mother without Verbally saying it which is the essence of Non- verbal Congruency. but drawing reasons from her mother's points of view as to why she needs to go for the car ( Elantra ) which is cheaper and has better fuel economy and also better stability as compared to the one she preferred which is the Mustang.

since it is Molly's mother who is to pay for the purchase she has to find a way to make their ideas on what is better for her to be similar and coherent and to use Non- verbal means to drawing such similarities is one way to make things coherent between she and her mother.
