\[wj - \left(\frac{wj}{wj + 1} - \frac{x}{e^{wj} + wj \cdot e^{wj}}\right)\]

Derivation

  1. Split input into 2 regimes

  2. if (- wj (- (/ wj (+ wj 1)) (/ (/ x (+ 1 wj)) (exp wj)))) < 3.639973196389132e-18

    1. Initial program 18.6

      \[wj - \frac{wj \cdot e^{wj} - x}{e^{wj} + wj \cdot e^{wj}}\]

    2. Taylor expanded around 0 0.8

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\left({wj}^{2} + x\right) - 2 \cdot \left(wj \cdot x\right)}\]

    if 3.639973196389132e-18 < (- wj (- (/ wj (+ wj 1)) (/ (/ x (+ 1 wj)) (exp wj))))

    1. Initial program 2.7

      \[wj - \frac{wj \cdot e^{wj} - x}{e^{wj} + wj \cdot e^{wj}}\]
    2. Using strategy rm

    3. Applied div-sub2.7

      \[\leadsto wj - \color{blue}{\left(\frac{wj \cdot e^{wj}}{e^{wj} + wj \cdot e^{wj}} - \frac{x}{e^{wj} + wj \cdot e^{wj}}\right)}\]

    4. Applied simplify0.6

      \[\leadsto wj - \left(\color{blue}{\frac{wj}{wj + 1}} - \frac{x}{e^{wj} + wj \cdot e^{wj}}\right)\]

    5. Applied simplify0.6

      \[\leadsto wj - \left(\frac{wj}{wj + 1} - \color{blue}{\frac{\frac{x}{1 + wj}}{e^{wj}}}\right)\]
  3. Recombined 2 regimes into one program.
