Derivation

  1. Split input into 3 regimes

  2. if b_2 < -1.3295118613703302e-13

    1. Initial program 55.0

      \[\frac{\left(-b_2\right) - \sqrt{b_2 \cdot b_2 - a \cdot c}}{a}\]

    2. Taylor expanded around -inf 6.9

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{-1}{2} \cdot \frac{c}{b_2}}\]

    if -1.3295118613703302e-13 < b_2 < 3.295450950813408e+65

    1. Initial program 15.4

      \[\frac{\left(-b_2\right) - \sqrt{b_2 \cdot b_2 - a \cdot c}}{a}\]
    2. Using strategy rm

    3. Applied div-inv15.5

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\left(\left(-b_2\right) - \sqrt{b_2 \cdot b_2 - a \cdot c}\right) \cdot \frac{1}{a}}\]

    if 3.295450950813408e+65 < b_2

    1. Initial program 40.0

      \[\frac{\left(-b_2\right) - \sqrt{b_2 \cdot b_2 - a \cdot c}}{a}\]

    2. Taylor expanded around inf 4.7

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{c}{b_2} - 2 \cdot \frac{b_2}{a}}\]
  3. Recombined 3 regimes into one program.

  4. Final simplification10.5
