Derivation

  1. Initial program 11.7

    \[x - \frac{\left(y \cdot 2\right) \cdot z}{\left(z \cdot 2\right) \cdot z - y \cdot t}\]
  2. Using strategy rm

  3. Applied associate-/l*7.0

    \[\leadsto x - \color{blue}{\frac{y \cdot 2}{\frac{\left(z \cdot 2\right) \cdot z - y \cdot t}{z}}}\]
  4. Using strategy rm

  5. Applied *-un-lft-identity7.0

    \[\leadsto x - \frac{y \cdot 2}{\frac{\left(z \cdot 2\right) \cdot z - y \cdot t}{\color{blue}{1 \cdot z}}}\]

  6. Applied *-un-lft-identity7.0

    \[\leadsto x - \frac{y \cdot 2}{\frac{\color{blue}{1 \cdot \left(\left(z \cdot 2\right) \cdot z - y \cdot t\right)}}{1 \cdot z}}\]
