Answer:
a=-13

Simplifying


4(41 + A) = 112


(41 * 4 + A * 4) = 112


(164 + 4A) = 112

Solving


164 + 4A = 112

Solving for variable 'A'.

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

Add '-164' to each side of the equation.


164 + -164 + 4A = 112 + -164

Combine like terms: 164 + -164 = 0


0 + 4A = 112 + -164


4A = 112 + -164

Combine like terms: 112 + -164 = -52


4A = -52

Divide each side by '4'


A = -13
