Derivation

  1. Split input into 2 regimes

  2. if x < -1.3286829524488706e+153 or 6.210935619700954e-41 < x

    1. Initial program 17.5

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

    3. Applied associate-/l*16.0

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{x \cdot 2}{\frac{x - y}{y}}}\]
    4. Using strategy rm

    5. Applied div-inv16.1

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

    6. Applied times-frac0.3

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{x}{x - y} \cdot \frac{2}{\frac{1}{y}}}\]

    7. Simplified0.2

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

    if -1.3286829524488706e+153 < x < 6.210935619700954e-41

    1. Initial program 12.8

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

    3. Applied *-un-lft-identity12.8

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

    4. Applied times-frac1.3

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{x \cdot 2}{1} \cdot \frac{y}{x - y}}\]

    5. Simplified1.3

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\left(x \cdot 2\right)} \cdot \frac{y}{x - y}\]
  3. Recombined 2 regimes into one program.

  4. Final simplification0.8

    \[\leadsto \begin{array}{l} \mathbf{if}\;x \le -1.32868295244887062 \cdot 10^{153} \lor \neg \left(x \le 6.210935619700954 \cdot 10^{-41}\right):\\ \;\;\;\;\frac{x}{x - y} \cdot \left(y \cdot 2\right)\\ \mathbf{else}:\\ \;\;\;\;\left(x \cdot 2\right) \cdot \frac{y}{x - y}\\ \end{array}\]
