ur question is 4(a -3)² - 4
4(a² - 6ab + 9) - 4
4a² - 24ab + 36 - 4
4a² - 24ab + 32
4(a² - 6ab + 8)
4(a-4)(a-2)

im not good at math, like at all... but if i had to guess id say the answer was...
4a^2+32
since you have to do exponets which would be (a^2+9) because -3^2 is positive 9. then distribute 4(a^2+9) and getttt 4a^2+36-4 so id say the answer is 4a^2+32.
i suck at math so hopefully this helps you a litttle....
