\[0.5 \cdot \left(x + y\right)\]

Derivation

  1. Initial program 0.0

    \[x + \frac{y - x}{2}\]

  2. Taylor expanded around 0 0

    \[\leadsto \color{blue}{0.5 \cdot x + 0.5 \cdot y}\]

  3. Simplified0

    \[\leadsto \color{blue}{0.5 \cdot \left(x + y\right)}\]

  4. Final simplification0

    \[\leadsto 0.5 \cdot \left(x + y\right)\]
