Derivation

  1. Split input into 3 regimes
  2. if b < -3.4568206269163544e+152

    1. Initial program 60.4

      \[\frac{\left(-b\right) + \sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(4 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}}{2 \cdot a}\]
    2. Taylor expanded around -inf 10.5

      \[\leadsto \frac{\color{blue}{2 \cdot \frac{c \cdot a}{b} - 2 \cdot b}}{2 \cdot a}\]
    3. Applied simplify2.1

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

    if -3.4568206269163544e+152 < b < 9.942544796435686e-53

    1. Initial program 12.5

      \[\frac{\left(-b\right) + \sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(4 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}}{2 \cdot a}\]
    2. Using strategy rm
    3. Applied div-inv12.7

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

    if 9.942544796435686e-53 < b

    1. Initial program 53.6

      \[\frac{\left(-b\right) + \sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(4 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}}{2 \cdot a}\]
    2. Taylor expanded around inf 18.9

      \[\leadsto \frac{\color{blue}{-2 \cdot \frac{c \cdot a}{b}}}{2 \cdot a}\]
    3. Applied simplify8.0

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