Step-by-step explanation:
The x- intercept is the value of x where the line crosses the x- axis.
The x- intercept is (0.3, 0)
The y- intercept is the value of y where the line crosses the y- axis
The y- intercept is (0, 0.4)
So... let's say the smaller regular octagon has sides of "x" long, then the larger octagon will have sides of 5x.

The height of the isosceles triangle is 8.49 inches.
<h3>
How to find the height of the triangle?</h3>
Here we have a triangle such that two of the sides measure 9 inches, and the base measures 6 inches.
So this is an isosceles triangle.
We can divide the isosceles triangle into two smaller right triangles, such that the side that measures 9 inches is the hypotenuse, the base is 3 inches, and the height of the isosceles triangle is the other cathetus.
By Pythagorean's theorem, we can write:
(9in)^2 = (3 in)^2 + h^2
Where h is the height that we are trying to find.
Solving that for h we get:
h = √( (9 in)^2 - (3in)^2) = 8.49 inches.
We conclude that the height of the isosceles triangle is 8.49 inches.
