Never similar. Because a pentagon does not have a parallel side to it. Hope this helps.

They are never similar. In order for two shaped to be similar, they must have the same number of sides, and the angles all must be the same. The only difference between two similar shapes is that their side lengths proportionally larger or smaller.

Since a parallelogram has 4 sides, and a pentagon has 5 sides, they can never be similar.

(5x-6x+2y+x+2) - (-3x+2y+4x+2)
5x-6x+x=0. (x+2y+2)
(2y+2) (x+2y+2)

= 4y-x+4

Which line has a slope of -5/8 and goes through the point (2,-3)

Kamila [148]

Answer: y = -5x/3 - 7/4

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope and point form is given as

y - $y_{1}$ = m(x - $x_{1}$ )

where m is the slope

$x_{1}$ = 2

$y_{1}$ = -3

m = -5/8

Substituting into the formula , we have

y - ( -3 ) = -5/8 ( x - 2 )

y + 3 = -5x/8 + 5/4

This could also be written in slope - intercept form , that means we will make y the subject of the formula

y = -5x/8 + 5/4 - 3

y = -5x/3 - 7/4
