Derivation

  1. Split input into 2 regimes

  2. if (/ (- beta alpha) (+ (+ alpha beta) 2.0)) < -1

    1. Initial program 60.6

      \[\frac{\frac{\beta - \alpha}{\left(\alpha + \beta\right) + 2} + 1}{2}\]
    2. Using strategy rm

    3. Applied div-sub60.6

      \[\leadsto \frac{\color{blue}{\left(\frac{\beta}{\left(\alpha + \beta\right) + 2} - \frac{\alpha}{\left(\alpha + \beta\right) + 2}\right)} + 1}{2}\]

    4. Applied associate-+l-58.7

      \[\leadsto \frac{\color{blue}{\frac{\beta}{\left(\alpha + \beta\right) + 2} - \left(\frac{\alpha}{\left(\alpha + \beta\right) + 2} - 1\right)}}{2}\]

    5. Taylor expanded around inf 11.0

      \[\leadsto \frac{\frac{\beta}{\left(\alpha + \beta\right) + 2} - \color{blue}{\left(4 \cdot \frac{1}{{\alpha}^{2}} - \left(2 \cdot \frac{1}{\alpha} + 8 \cdot \frac{1}{{\alpha}^{3}}\right)\right)}}{2}\]

    6. Simplified11.0

      \[\leadsto \frac{\frac{\beta}{\left(\alpha + \beta\right) + 2} - \color{blue}{\left(\left(\frac{\frac{4}{\alpha}}{\alpha} + \frac{-8}{{\alpha}^{3}}\right) + \frac{2}{\alpha} \cdot -1\right)}}{2}\]

    if -1 < (/ (- beta alpha) (+ (+ alpha beta) 2.0))

    1. Initial program 0.5

      \[\frac{\frac{\beta - \alpha}{\left(\alpha + \beta\right) + 2} + 1}{2}\]
    2. Using strategy rm

    3. Applied add-cbrt-cube0.6

      \[\leadsto \frac{\color{blue}{\sqrt[3]{\left(\left(\frac{\beta - \alpha}{\left(\alpha + \beta\right) + 2} + 1\right) \cdot \left(\frac{\beta - \alpha}{\left(\alpha + \beta\right) + 2} + 1\right)\right) \cdot \left(\frac{\beta - \alpha}{\left(\alpha + \beta\right) + 2} + 1\right)}}}{2}\]

    4. Simplified0.6

      \[\leadsto \frac{\sqrt[3]{\color{blue}{{\left(\frac{\beta - \alpha}{\left(\alpha + \beta\right) + 2} + 1\right)}^{3}}}}{2}\]
  3. Recombined 2 regimes into one program.

  4. Final simplification3.3

    \[\leadsto \begin{array}{l} \mathbf{if}\;\frac{\beta - \alpha}{\left(\alpha + \beta\right) + 2} \le -1:\\ \;\;\;\;\frac{\frac{\beta}{\left(\alpha + \beta\right) + 2} - \left(\left(\frac{\frac{4}{\alpha}}{\alpha} + \frac{-8}{{\alpha}^{3}}\right) + \frac{2}{\alpha} \cdot -1\right)}{2}\\ \mathbf{else}:\\ \;\;\;\;\frac{\sqrt[3]{{\left(\frac{\beta - \alpha}{\left(\alpha + \beta\right) + 2} + 1\right)}^{3}}}{2}\\ \end{array}\]
