    if b < -1.6510623f+14

    1. Started with
      \[\frac{\left(-b\right) + \sqrt{{b}^2 - \left(4 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}}{2 \cdot a}\]
      24.0
    2. Applied taylor to get
      \[\frac{\left(-b\right) + \sqrt{{b}^2 - \left(4 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}}{2 \cdot a} \leadsto \frac{2 \cdot \frac{c \cdot a}{b} - 2 \cdot b}{2 \cdot a}\]
      6.4
    3. Taylor expanded around -inf to get
      \[\frac{\color{red}{2 \cdot \frac{c \cdot a}{b} - 2 \cdot b}}{2 \cdot a} \leadsto \frac{\color{blue}{2 \cdot \frac{c \cdot a}{b} - 2 \cdot b}}{2 \cdot a}\]
      6.4
    4. Applied simplify to get
      \[\color{red}{\frac{2 \cdot \frac{c \cdot a}{b} - 2 \cdot b}{2 \cdot a}} \leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{\frac{c}{b}}{1} - \frac{b}{a}}\]
      0.0
    5. Applied simplify to get
      \[\color{red}{\frac{\frac{c}{b}}{1}} - \frac{b}{a} \leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{c}{b}} - \frac{b}{a}\]
      0.0

    if -1.6510623f+14 < b < 1.8040304f-05

    1. Started with

      27.9
    2. Applied taylor to get
      \[\frac{\left(-b\right) + \sqrt{{b}^2 - \left(4 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}}{2 \cdot a} \leadsto \frac{-2 \cdot \frac{c \cdot a}{b}}{2 \cdot a}\]
      6.7
    3. Taylor expanded around inf to get
      \[\frac{\color{red}{-2 \cdot \frac{c \cdot a}{b}}}{2 \cdot a} \leadsto \frac{\color{blue}{-2 \cdot \frac{c \cdot a}{b}}}{2 \cdot a}\]
      6.7
    4. Applied simplify to get
