If a pyramid with a square base is set on top of a cube and exactly covers the top how many faces will the shape have on the outside?

A cube has 6 faces, but now the top face is covered and the bottom can't be seen leaving 4 visual faces. The square pyramid has a square bottom that is covering the top face of the cube and therefore, not visible. The rest of the faces are 4 triangular faces. So 4 triangle faces plus 4 cube faces = 8 faces. If one wants to include the bottom of the cube, that would be 9 faces.
