Derivation

  1. Split input into 4 regimes.

  2. if b < -3.766497225051822e+62

    1. Initial program 58.0

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

    2. Applied taylor 41.1

      \[\leadsto \frac{\left(-b\right) - \left(2 \cdot \frac{c \cdot a}{b} - b\right)}{2 \cdot a}\]

    3. Taylor expanded around -inf 41.1

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

    4. Applied simplify 0

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{\left(-b\right) + b}{a + a} - \frac{\frac{c}{b}}{1}}\]

    5. Applied simplify 0

      \[\leadsto \frac{\left(-b\right) + b}{a + a} - \color{blue}{\frac{c}{b}}\]

    if -3.766497225051822e+62 < b < -2.8254884407435903e-279

    1. Initial program 32.2

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

    3. Applied flip-- 32.3

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

    4. Applied simplify 17.7

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

    if -2.8254884407435903e-279 < b < 1.5677719585707962e+117

    1. Initial program 9.1

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

    if 1.5677719585707962e+117 < b

    1. Initial program 49.3

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

    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

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