-11x² + 2x = 10
-11x² + 2x - 10 = 10 - 10
-11x² + 2x - 10 = 0
x = <u>-(2) +/- √((2)² - 4(-11)(-10))</u>

She will use 42 purple beads.
Explanation
We will use a proportion to solve this.
The ratio of blue to purple beads is 4:3, or 4/3.
We know she uses 56 blue beads and an unknown amount, x, of purple beads. This gives us 56/x.
Together, we have
4/3 = 56/x
Cross multiply:
4*x = 3*56
4x = 168
Divide both sides by 4:
4x/4 = 168/4
x = 42
The area <em>A</em> of a trapezoid with height <em>h</em> and bases <em>b</em>₁ and <em>b</em>₂ is equal to the average of the bases times the height:
<em>A</em> = (<em>b</em>₁ + <em>b</em>₂) <em>h</em> / 2
We're given <em>A</em> = 864, <em>h</em> = 24, and one of the bases has length 30, so
864 = (<em>b</em>₁ + 30) 24 / 2
864 = (<em>b</em>₁ + 30) 12
864 = (<em>b</em>₁ + 30) 12
72 = <em>b</em>₁ + 30
<em>b</em>₁ = 42
Based on the picture, PC = PD
