Derivation

  1. Split input into 3 regimes

  2. if b < -9.064261811055599e+144

    1. Initial program 57.6

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

    2. Taylor expanded around -inf 10.9

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

    3. Applied simplify3.3

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{\frac{c}{b}}{1} - \frac{b + b}{2 \cdot a}}\]

    if -9.064261811055599e+144 < b < 1.6793350272357014e-79

    1. Initial program 11.6

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

    if 1.6793350272357014e-79 < b

    1. Initial program 52.1

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

    2. Taylor expanded around inf 47.2

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

    3. Applied simplify9.8

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\left(-1\right) \cdot \frac{c}{b}}\]
  3. Recombined 3 regimes into one program.

  4. Applied simplify10.0

    \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\begin{array}{l} \mathbf{if}\;b \le -9.064261811055599 \cdot 10^{+144}:\\ \;\;\;\;\frac{c}{b} - \frac{b + b}{2 \cdot a}\\ \mathbf{if}\;b \le 1.6793350272357014 \cdot 10^{-79}:\\ \;\;\;\;\frac{\left(-b\right) + \sqrt{b \cdot b - c \cdot \left(4 \cdot a\right)}}{2 \cdot a}\\ \mathbf{else}:\\ \;\;\;\;\frac{-c}{b}\\ \end{array}}\]
