\huge\text{Hey there!}


\text{Assuming you mean}\downarrow\\\mathtt{2(b + 2) = 2b - 5}\\\mathtt{\rightarrow 2(b) + 2(2) = 2b - 5}\\\mathtt{\rightarrow 2b + 4 = 2b - 5}\\\text{SUBTRACT 2b to BOTH SIDES}\\\mathtt{\rightarrow 2b + 4 - 2b = 2b - 5 - 2b}\\\text{SIMPLIFY it}\\\mathtt{\rightarrow 4 = -5}\\\text{SUBTRACT 4 to BOTH SIDES}\\\mathtt{\rightarrow 4 - 4 = -5 - 4}\\\text{SIMPLIFY it}\\\mathtt{\rightarrow 0 = -5 - 4}\\\mathtt{\rightarrow 0 = -9}


\huge\text{Thus your answer should most likely be:}


\huge\boxed{\mathtt{NO\ SOLUTIONS}}}\huge\checkmark
