Why do we get a murky color and not white when mixing the seven colors of the rainbow?

It depends if you are you mixing light, or if you are mixing paint. Enough different colors of light, in the correct proportions, can make white. More than 2 or 3 colors of paint, no matter what the proportions, usually makes something like peanut butter.
The difference is the color system used. Light uses the positive system, where if you mix red, green, and blue light, you get white. But, with paints, the negative system applies, and if you mix cyan, yellow, and magenta, you get black.

What color can you mix with pink to make blue?
None; blue is a primary color. Primary colors such as yellow, blue and red (or yellow, cyan and magenta) are considered pure because they can't be created by mixing other colors. On the other hand, primary colors can be combined to make any other hue. If you want pink to take on a more bluish shade, add blue to the mixture. The result will be a variable shade of violet or purple.

What color does light green and light pink make?
If you combine mint green and light pink you will have a light, warm, muddy color. Mint green is a tint of the color green, and light pink is a tint of the color red. These two colors are complimentary, which means that they have little to no pigments in common. When combined they contain too many pigments, so none of them will dominate the others and the color will look murky.
