-3 + 2a = (4 + a) + -1(a + 1)

Remove parenthesis around (4 + a)
-3 + 2a = 4 + a + -1(a + 1)

Reorder the terms:
-3 + 2a = 4 + a + -1(1 + a)
-3 + 2a = 4 + a + (1 * -1 + a * -1)
-3 + 2a = 4 + a + (-1 + -1a)

Reorder the terms:
-3 + 2a = 4 + -1 + a + -1a

Combine like terms: 4 + -1 = 3
-3 + 2a = 3 + a + -1a

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