how many straws would you need if you used whole straws for the side edges and quarter straws for the base edges for an octagonal pyramid?

Edges on a pyramid?
That would be 2 times the number of sides in the base. For example, a triangular pyramid has 6 edges. A rectangular pyramid has 8 edges. An octagonal pyramid has 16 edges.
How many faces vertices edges does a octagonal have?
"Octagonal" is an adjective. That is not enough information. Is it an octagonal prism, octagonal pyramid, octagonal bipyramid or something else? Each one would lead to a different answer.
How many straws would you need if you used quarter straws for the edges of the base and whole straws for the other edges of octagon?

What is an 8 sided shape that looks like a pyramid?
If by "side" you mean face, you might be referring to a heptagonal pyramid (a pyramid with eight faces).If by "side" you mean edge, you might be referring to a tetragonal pyramid (a pyramid with eight edges).Or, if you mean it has an eight-sided base, your answer would be an octagonal pyramid (a pyramid with an eight-sides base).
How many straws would you need if you used whole straws for the side edges and quarter straws for the base edges?
That's going to depend on what shape you're building, which, as far as I can see, you neglected to mention.
How may edges does a five sided pyramid have?
If side refers to 'face', then the pyramid would be a quadrilateral pyramid with 8 edges. If side refers to the base of the pyramid, it would be a pentagonal pyramid with 10 edges.
How many straws would you need if you used quarter straws for the edges of the base and whole straws for the other edges?
The answer will depend on what the shape is. And since you have not bothered to share that crucial bit of information, I cannot provide a more useful answer.
Does a pyramid have eight edges?
Depends on the pyramid. A pyramid with a square (or quadrilateral) base would indeed have 8 edges, but a pyramid can have any other polygon as a base.Depends on the pyramid.

How many straws would you need to make triangular pyramid?
6 of them
What is the prism or pyramid with eighteen edges?
A pyramid with 18 edges would be called a nonagonal pyramid. A prism with 18 edges is called a hexagonal prism.
