I believe the needs to be = something or define a value for a? You cant solve this otherwise.

#4a+24 =# something
#a=# #(#something - #24##)# #/4#

OR
#a =# something
Then #4 *# something #+24 =....#

Hope it makes sense.

Otherwise you can't solve this.

a = -6

Equate the function to zero, then solve for a:

#4a + 24 = 0#

#4a = -24#

#a = -24/4#

#a = -6#

This is only correct if you are asked to solve for 'a'.
