<span>The answer is 8:343.
</span>We can use Galileo's square cube law to calculate the ratio between two similar pyramids. The law is used to describe the change of the area or the volume of the shape when their dimensions increase or decrease:

V₁ and V₂ - volumes of pyramids,
l₁ and <span>l</span>₂ - the edges of pyramids.

3x + 4y = - 8
The equation of a line in standard form is Ax + By = C
where A is a positive integer and B, C are integers
Express the line in ' slope- intercept form '
y = mx + c → (m is the slope and c is the y-intercept)
here m = - and c = - 2
hence y = - x - 2 → equation in slope- intercept form
multiply all terms by 4
4y = - 3x - 8
add 3x to both sides
3x + 4y = - 8 → in standard form
