\[x - \left(6 \cdot z\right) \cdot \left(x - y\right)\]

Derivation

  1. Initial program 0.3

    \[x + \left(\left(y - x\right) \cdot 6\right) \cdot z\]
  2. Using strategy rm
  3. Applied *-commutative0.3

    \[\leadsto x + \color{blue}{\left(6 \cdot \left(y - x\right)\right)} \cdot z\]
  4. Applied associate-*l*0.2

    \[\leadsto x + \color{blue}{6 \cdot \left(\left(y - x\right) \cdot z\right)}\]
  5. Taylor expanded around 0 0.2

    \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\left(6 \cdot \left(z \cdot y\right) + x\right) - 6 \cdot \left(x \cdot z\right)}\]
  6. Simplified0.2

    \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\mathsf{fma}\left(\left(y - x\right) \cdot 6, z, x\right)}\]
  7. Final simplification0.2

    \[\leadsto \mathsf{fma}\left(\left(y - x\right) \cdot 6, z, x\right)\]
