To evaluate the given equation, begin by combining similar terms containing aa on one side of the equation and the constants on the other. This can be done subtracting 4a\textcolor{#c34632}{4a} and 4\textcolor{#c34632}{4} on both sides of the equation.

3a+44a4=6+4a4a43a4a+0=641a=2\begin{aligned} 3a+4 \textcolor{#c34632}{-4a-4}&= 6+4a \textcolor{#c34632}{-4a-4} \\ 3a-4a+0&= 6-4 \\ -1a &= 2 \end{aligned}
