Derivation

  1. Split input into 3 regimes.
  2. if b < -9.26777223902318e+150

    1. Initial program 59.4

      \[\frac{\left(-b\right) + \sqrt{{b}^2 - 4 \cdot \left(a \cdot c\right)}}{2 \cdot a}\]
    2. Applied taylor 13.1

      \[\leadsto \frac{2 \cdot \frac{c \cdot a}{b} - 2 \cdot b}{2 \cdot a}\]
    3. Taylor expanded around -inf 13.1

      \[\leadsto \frac{\color{blue}{2 \cdot \frac{c \cdot a}{b} - 2 \cdot b}}{2 \cdot a}\]
    4. Applied simplify 0.0

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{\frac{c}{b}}{1} - \frac{b}{a}}\]
    5. Applied simplify 0.0

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

    if -9.26777223902318e+150 < b < 3.8012790836766795e-128

    1. Initial program 11.1

      \[\frac{\left(-b\right) + \sqrt{{b}^2 - 4 \cdot \left(a \cdot c\right)}}{2 \cdot a}\]
    2. Using strategy rm
    3. Applied div-inv 11.2

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\left(\left(-b\right) + \sqrt{{b}^2 - 4 \cdot \left(a \cdot c\right)}\right) \cdot \frac{1}{2 \cdot a}}\]

    if 3.8012790836766795e-128 < b

    1. Initial program 58.9

      \[\frac{\left(-b\right) + \sqrt{{b}^2 - 4 \cdot \left(a \cdot c\right)}}{2 \cdot a}\]
    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 3 regimes into one program.
  4. Removed slow pow expressions
