Derivation

  1. Initial program 52.4

    \[\frac{\left(-b\right) + \sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(4 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}}{2 \cdot a}\]
  2. Simplified52.4

    \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{\frac{\sqrt{\mathsf{fma}\left(b, b, \left(a \cdot -4\right) \cdot c\right)} - b}{a}}{2}}\]
  3. Taylor expanded around inf 6.3

    \[\leadsto \frac{\color{blue}{-2 \cdot \frac{c}{b}}}{2}\]
  4. Final simplification6.3

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