The solution

Detail solution
For every modulo expressions in the equation
allow cases, when this expressions ">=0" or "<0",
solve the resulting equation.

1.
$$6 b - 9 \geq 0$$
or
$$\frac{3}{2} \leq b \wedge b < \infty$$
we get the equation
$$\left(6 b - 9\right) + 20 = 0$$
after simplifying we get
$$6 b + 11 = 0$$
the solution in this interval:
$$b_{1} = - \frac{11}{6}$$
but b1 not in the inequality interval

2.
$$6 b - 9 < 0$$
or
$$-\infty < b \wedge b < \frac{3}{2}$$
we get the equation
$$\left(9 - 6 b\right) + 20 = 0$$
after simplifying we get
$$29 - 6 b = 0$$
the solution in this interval:
$$b_{2} = \frac{29}{6}$$
but b2 not in the inequality interval
