5x + 9 = x - 23 
move x to the other side
sign changes from +x to -x
5x-x+9= x-x-23 ( combine like terms)
5x-x+9= -23
4x+9= -23
move -9 to the other side
4x+9-9= -23-9
4x= -23-9
4x= -32
divide both sides by 4 to get x by itself
4x/4= -32/4
answer:
x= -8

P = 9ft x 2
P = 18ft + 1.5ft (the new mural)
P = 19.5ft
Therefore the perimeter of Rosalie's new mural is 19.5ft
