Derivation

  1. Split input into 2 regimes
  2. if c < 247294268766.76083 or 7737334558573.6455 < c

    1. Initial program 44.3

      \[\frac{\left(-b\right) + \sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(3 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}}{3 \cdot a}\]
    2. Simplified44.3

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{\sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(3 \cdot a\right) \cdot c} - b}{3 \cdot a}}\]
    3. Taylor expanded around inf 11.7

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

    if 247294268766.76083 < c < 7737334558573.6455

    1. Initial program 34.2

      \[\frac{\left(-b\right) + \sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(3 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}}{3 \cdot a}\]
    2. Simplified34.2

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{\sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(3 \cdot a\right) \cdot c} - b}{3 \cdot a}}\]
    3. Using strategy rm
    4. Applied add-cube-cbrt34.2

      \[\leadsto \frac{\color{blue}{\left(\sqrt[3]{\sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(3 \cdot a\right) \cdot c} - b} \cdot \sqrt[3]{\sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(3 \cdot a\right) \cdot c} - b}\right) \cdot \sqrt[3]{\sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(3 \cdot a\right) \cdot c} - b}}}{3 \cdot a}\]
  3. Recombined 2 regimes into one program.
  4. Final simplification12.3

    \[\leadsto \begin{array}{l} \mathbf{if}\;c \le 247294268766.76083:\\ \;\;\;\;\frac{-1}{2} \cdot \frac{c}{b}\\ \mathbf{elif}\;c \le 7737334558573.6455:\\ \;\;\;\;\frac{\left(\sqrt[3]{\sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(3 \cdot a\right) \cdot c} - b} \cdot \sqrt[3]{\sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(3 \cdot a\right) \cdot c} - b}\right) \cdot \sqrt[3]{\sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(3 \cdot a\right) \cdot c} - b}}{3 \cdot a}\\ \mathbf{else}:\\ \;\;\;\;\frac{-1}{2} \cdot \frac{c}{b}\\ \end{array}\]
