Derivation

  1. Initial program 0.2

    \[\left(a - \frac{1}{3}\right) \cdot \left(1 + \frac{1}{\sqrt{9 \cdot \left(a - \frac{1}{3}\right)}} \cdot rand\right)\]
  2. Using strategy rm

  3. Applied associate-*l/0.1

    \[\leadsto \left(a - \frac{1}{3}\right) \cdot \left(1 + \color{blue}{\frac{1 \cdot rand}{\sqrt{9 \cdot \left(a - \frac{1}{3}\right)}}}\right)\]
  4. Using strategy rm

  5. Applied sqrt-prod0.1

    \[\leadsto \left(a - \frac{1}{3}\right) \cdot \left(1 + \frac{1 \cdot rand}{\color{blue}{\sqrt{9} \cdot \sqrt{a - \frac{1}{3}}}}\right)\]

  6. Applied associate-/r*0.1

    \[\leadsto \left(a - \frac{1}{3}\right) \cdot \left(1 + \color{blue}{\frac{\frac{1 \cdot rand}{\sqrt{9}}}{\sqrt{a - \frac{1}{3}}}}\right)\]

  7. Final simplification0.1
