\[4.93038 \cdot 10^{-32} \lt a \lt 2.02824 \cdot 10^{31} \land 4.93038 \cdot 10^{-32} \lt b \lt 2.02824 \cdot 10^{31} \land 4.93038 \cdot 10^{-32} \lt c \lt 2.02824 \cdot 10^{31}\]

Math

\[\frac{\left(-b\right) + \sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(3 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}}{3 \cdot a}\]

↓

\[\frac{\frac{0 + \left(3 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}{\left(-b\right) - \sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(3 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}}}{3 \cdot a}\]

Derivation

1. Initial program 52.6

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

3. Applied flip-+ 52.6

   \[\leadsto \frac{\color{blue}{\frac{\left(-b\right) \cdot \left(-b\right) - \sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(3 \cdot a\right) \cdot c} \cdot \sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(3 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}}{\left(-b\right) - \sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(3 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}}}}{3 \cdot a}\]

4. Simplified 0.5

   \[\leadsto \frac{\frac{\color{blue}{0 + 3 \cdot \left(a \cdot c\right)}}{\left(-b\right) - \sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(3 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}}}{3 \cdot a}\]
5. Using strategy rm

6. Applied associate-*r* 0.4

   \[\leadsto \frac{\frac{0 + \color{blue}{\left(3 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}}{\left(-b\right) - \sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(3 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}}}{3 \cdot a}\]

7. Final simplification 0.4

   \[\leadsto \frac{\frac{0 + \left(3 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}{\left(-b\right) - \sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(3 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}}}{3 \cdot a}\]
