Well if she added three blue and four red originally, and is now using 16 red then we would divide 16 by the original four. Which means to get the number of blue we are gonna end up multiplying by four. So three times four is twelve. Which means she would use 12 blue and 16 red to get the same color she got with 3 blue and 4 red earlier. The equation, lets use x for blue and y for red, would be 4(3x + 4y) = desired color

Answer:
Measure of CD = 17 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter of a polygon = Sum of measures of all sides of the polygon
Perimeter of the given rectangle = 2(length + width)
= 2[(x + 3) + (2x - 1)]
= 2(3x + 2) units
Perimeter of triangle EFG = EF + FG + GE
= (x - 7) + (4x - 8) + (3x + 1)
= (8x - 14)
= 2(4x - 7) units
Since, perimeters of both the figures are equal,
2(3x + 2) = 2(4x - 7)
3x + 2 = 4x - 7
4x - 3x = 7 + 2
x = 9
Measure of CD = (2x - 1)
= 2(9) - 1
= 17 units
