f(-a)=-3(-a)+2

Solution for f(-a)=-3(-a)+2 equation:

Simplifying
f(-1a) = -3(-1a) + 2

Remove parenthesis around (-1a)
f * -1a = -3(-1a) + 2

Reorder the terms for easier multiplication:
-1f * a = -3(-1a) + 2

Multiply f * a
-1af = -3(-1a) + 2

Remove parenthesis around (-1a)
-1af = -3 * -1a + 2

Multiply -3 * -1
-1af = 3a + 2

Reorder the terms:
-1af = 2 + 3a

Solving
-1af = 2 + 3a

Solving for variable 'a'.

Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-3a' to each side of the equation.
-3a + -1af = 2 + 3a + -3a

Combine like terms: 3a + -3a = 0
-3a + -1af = 2 + 0
-3a + -1af = 2

Reorder the terms:
-2 + -3a + -1af = 2 + -2

Combine like terms: 2 + -2 = 0
-2 + -3a + -1af = 0

Factor out the Greatest Common Factor (GCF), '-1'.
-1(2 + 3a + af) = 0

Ignore the factor -1.
Subproblem 1
Set the factor '(2 + 3a + af)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
2 + 3a + af = 0

Solving
2 + 3a + af = 0

Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-2' to each side of the equation.
2 + 3a + -2 + af = 0 + -2

Reorder the terms:
2 + -2 + 3a + af = 0 + -2

Combine like terms: 2 + -2 = 0
0 + 3a + af = 0 + -2
3a + af = 0 + -2

Combine like terms: 0 + -2 = -2
3a + af = -2
