There is no equation. Calcium-42 is stable and does not decay. Calcium is also much to light for alpha decay, which requires elements heavier than nickel, so no isotope of calcium undergoes alpha decay.

Radium-228 decays by alpha decay Part of the nuclear equation is shown?
224
Alpha decay of selenium-78?
Since an alpha particle is simply two protons and two neutrons bound together, or He2+, the alpha decay of selenium-78 is easily determined. Selenium-78 has 34 protons and 44 neutrons. Subtract 2 from each of these due to the loss of the alpha particle and you have 32 protons and 42 neutrons. This new atom is germanium-74.
What forms from the decay of potassium-42?
SMD
How many protons neutrons and electrons are in an atom of calcium-42?
Calcium has atomic number 20, which means that all calcium atoms have 20 protons in their atomic nuclei. Neutral calcium atoms also have 20 electrons. Isotopes of calcium vary in the number of neutrons in their atomic nuclei, and are named for their mass number, which is the sum of the protons and neutrons in the nucleus. You can calculate the number of neutrons (N) in an isotope by subtracting the number of protons (atomic number) from the mass number. N = 42 - 20 = 22, therefore, a calcium-42 isotope has 20 protons, 20 electrons, and 22 neutrons.
A sample of calcium contains calcium -40 calcium -44 calcium -42 calcium -48 calcium -43 and calcium -46 atoms Explain why these atoms can have different mass numbers bu the must have the same atomic?
They have different masses because the number of neutrons varie. All these are called "isotopes". Each neutron weighs a certain amount, and with more or less neutrons, the mass changes
What is the equation to describe the alpha decay of a radium 226 nucleus to form a radon nucleus?
