\sin(x^{2})+2ax+2x+a=0
Use the distributive property to multiply 2a+2 by x.
2ax+2x+a=-\sin(x^{2})
Subtract \sin(x^{2}) from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
2ax+a=-\sin(x^{2})-2x
Subtract 2x from both sides.
\left(2x+1\right)a=-\sin(x^{2})-2x
Combine all terms containing a.
\frac{\left(2x+1\right)a}{2x+1}=\frac{-\sin(x^{2})-2x}{2x+1}
Divide both sides by 2x+1.
a=\frac{-\sin(x^{2})-2x}{2x+1}
Dividing by 2x+1 undoes the multiplication by 2x+1.
a=-\frac{\sin(x^{2})+2x}{2x+1}
Divide -\sin(x^{2})-2x by 2x+1.
