Derivation

  1. Initial program 32.0

    \[\frac{x}{x} - \frac{1}{x} \cdot \sqrt{x \cdot x}\]

  2. Initial simplification30.2

    \[\leadsto (\left(\frac{-1}{x}\right) \cdot \left(\left|x\right|\right) + 1)_*\]

  3. Taylor expanded around 0 0

    \[\leadsto \color{blue}{1 - \frac{\left|x\right|}{x}}\]

  4. Final simplification0

    \[\leadsto 1 - \frac{\left|x\right|}{x}\]
