Derivation

  1. Split input into 3 regimes

  2. if b < -3.2446290901662446e+152

    1. Initial program 60.5

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

    2. Taylor expanded around -inf 10.4

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

    3. Applied simplify2.7

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

    if -3.2446290901662446e+152 < b < 7.429427179450615e-44

    1. Initial program 13.3

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

    if 7.429427179450615e-44 < b

    1. Initial program 53.9

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

    2. Taylor expanded around inf 46.7

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

    3. Applied simplify7.8

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

  4. Applied simplify10.0

    \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\begin{array}{l} \mathbf{if}\;b \le -3.2446290901662446 \cdot 10^{+152}:\\ \;\;\;\;\frac{c}{b} - \frac{b + b}{2 \cdot a}\\ \mathbf{elif}\;b \le 7.429427179450615 \cdot 10^{-44}:\\ \;\;\;\;\frac{\left(-b\right) + \sqrt{b \cdot b - 4 \cdot \left(a \cdot c\right)}}{2 \cdot a}\\ \mathbf{else}:\\ \;\;\;\;\frac{-c}{b}\\ \end{array}}\]
