Solving
-54 + 6a = -9 + a2

Solving for variable 'a'.

Reorder the terms:
-54 + 9 + 6a + -1a2 = -9 + a2 + 9 + -1a2

Combine like terms: -54 + 9 = -45
-45 + 6a + -1a2 = -9 + a2 + 9 + -1a2

Reorder the terms:
-45 + 6a + -1a2 = -9 + 9 + a2 + -1a2

Combine like terms: -9 + 9 = 0
-45 + 6a + -1a2 = 0 + a2 + -1a2
-45 + 6a + -1a2 = a2 + -1a2
