76=a\left(15-h\right)^{3}+ak
Variable a cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by a.
76=a\left(3375-675h+45h^{2}-h^{3}\right)+ak
Use binomial theorem \left(a-b\right)^{3}=a^{3}-3a^{2}b+3ab^{2}-b^{3} to expand \left(15-h\right)^{3}.
76=3375a-675ah+45ah^{2}-ah^{3}+ak
Use the distributive property to multiply a by 3375-675h+45h^{2}-h^{3}.
3375a-675ah+45ah^{2}-ah^{3}+ak=76
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
\left(3375-675h+45h^{2}-h^{3}+k\right)a=76
Combine all terms containing a.
\left(3375+k-675h+45h^{2}-h^{3}\right)a=76
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(3375+k-675h+45h^{2}-h^{3}\right)a}{3375+k-675h+45h^{2}-h^{3}}=\frac{76}{3375+k-675h+45h^{2}-h^{3}}
Divide both sides by 3375-675h+45h^{2}-h^{3}+k.
a=\frac{76}{3375+k-675h+45h^{2}-h^{3}}
Dividing by 3375-675h+45h^{2}-h^{3}+k undoes the multiplication by 3375-675h+45h^{2}-h^{3}+k.
a=\frac{76}{3375+k-675h+45h^{2}-h^{3}}\text{, }a\neq 0
Variable a cannot be equal to 0.
