Derivation

  1. Split input into 4 regimes.

  2. if b < -3.2345120336434788e+106

    1. Initial program 48.2

      \[\frac{\left(-b\right) + \sqrt{{b}^2 - 4 \cdot \left(a \cdot c\right)}}{2 \cdot a}\]

    2. Applied taylor 0

      \[\leadsto -1 \cdot \frac{b}{a}\]

    3. Taylor expanded around -inf 0

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{-1 \cdot \frac{b}{a}}\]

    4. Applied simplify 0

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{-b}{a}}\]

    if -3.2345120336434788e+106 < b < 1.135484290896535e-164

    1. Initial program 11.1

      \[\frac{\left(-b\right) + \sqrt{{b}^2 - 4 \cdot \left(a \cdot c\right)}}{2 \cdot a}\]

    if 1.135484290896535e-164 < b < 8.723592781744059e+123

    1. Initial program 39.5

      \[\frac{\left(-b\right) + \sqrt{{b}^2 - 4 \cdot \left(a \cdot c\right)}}{2 \cdot a}\]
    2. Using strategy rm

    3. Applied flip-+ 39.5

      \[\leadsto \frac{\color{blue}{\frac{{\left(-b\right)}^2 - {\left(\sqrt{{b}^2 - 4 \cdot \left(a \cdot c\right)}\right)}^2}{\left(-b\right) - \sqrt{{b}^2 - 4 \cdot \left(a \cdot c\right)}}}}{2 \cdot a}\]

    4. Applied simplify 15.8

      \[\leadsto \frac{\frac{\color{blue}{a \cdot \left(4 \cdot c\right)}}{\left(-b\right) - \sqrt{{b}^2 - 4 \cdot \left(a \cdot c\right)}}}{2 \cdot a}\]

    if 8.723592781744059e+123 < b

    1. Initial program 60.2

      \[\frac{\left(-b\right) + \sqrt{{b}^2 - 4 \cdot \left(a \cdot c\right)}}{2 \cdot a}\]

    2. Applied taylor 15.5

      \[\leadsto \frac{-2 \cdot \frac{c \cdot a}{b}}{2 \cdot a}\]

    3. Taylor expanded around inf 15.5

      \[\leadsto \frac{\color{blue}{-2 \cdot \frac{c \cdot a}{b}}}{2 \cdot a}\]

    4. Applied simplify 0

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{c}{b} \cdot \frac{-2}{2}}\]
  3. Recombined 4 regimes into one program.
  4. Removed slow pow expressions
