Derivation

  1. Initial program 0.4

    \[\log \left(1 + e^{x}\right) - x \cdot y\]
  2. Using strategy rm

  3. Applied add-sqr-sqrt1.3

    \[\leadsto \log \color{blue}{\left(\sqrt{1 + e^{x}} \cdot \sqrt{1 + e^{x}}\right)} - x \cdot y\]

  4. Applied log-prod1.0

    \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\left(\log \left(\sqrt{1 + e^{x}}\right) + \log \left(\sqrt{1 + e^{x}}\right)\right)} - x \cdot y\]

  5. Applied associate--l+1.0

    \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\log \left(\sqrt{1 + e^{x}}\right) + \left(\log \left(\sqrt{1 + e^{x}}\right) - x \cdot y\right)}\]
