The solution

You have entered [src]
(a + 3)*x = (a + 3)*(a - 2)
$$x \left(a + 3\right) = \left(a - 2\right) \left(a + 3\right)$$
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
(a+3)*x = (a+3)*(a-2)

Expand brackets in the left part
a+3x = (a+3)*(a-2)

Expand brackets in the right part
a+3x = a+3a-2

Looking for similar summands in the left part:
x*(3 + a) = a+3a-2

Looking for similar summands in the right part:
x*(3 + a) = (-2 + a)*(3 + a)

Divide both parts of the equation by 3 + a
x = (-2 + a)*(3 + a) / (3 + a)

We get the answer: x = -2 + a
The solution of the parametric equation
Given the equation with a parameter:
$$x \left(a + 3\right) = \left(a - 2\right) \left(a + 3\right)$$

Rapid solution [src]
x1 = -2 + I*im(a) + re(a)
$$x_{1} = \operatorname{re}{\left(a\right)} + i \operatorname{im}{\left(a\right)} - 2$$
x1 = re(a) + i*im(a) - 2
