6x^{2}+bx-2ax=b^{2}+ab
Use the distributive property to multiply b-2a by x.
6x^{2}+bx-2ax-ab=b^{2}
Subtract ab from both sides.
bx-2ax-ab=b^{2}-6x^{2}
Subtract 6x^{2} from both sides.
-2ax-ab=b^{2}-6x^{2}-bx
Subtract bx from both sides.
\left(-2x-b\right)a=b^{2}-6x^{2}-bx
Combine all terms containing a.
\left(-2x-b\right)a=b^{2}-bx-6x^{2}
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(-2x-b\right)a}{-2x-b}=\frac{\left(b-3x\right)\left(2x+b\right)}{-2x-b}
Divide both sides by -2x-b.
a=\frac{\left(b-3x\right)\left(2x+b\right)}{-2x-b}
Dividing by -2x-b undoes the multiplication by -2x-b.
a=3x-b
Divide \left(-3x+b\right)\left(2x+b\right) by -2x-b.
6x^{2}+bx-2ax=b^{2}+ab
