Derivation

  1. Initial program 29.1

    \[\frac{\left(-b\right) + \sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(3 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}}{3 \cdot a}\]
  2. Using strategy rm
  3. Applied flip-+29.1

    \[\leadsto \frac{\color{blue}{\frac{\left(-b\right) \cdot \left(-b\right) - \sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(3 \cdot a\right) \cdot c} \cdot \sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(3 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}}{\left(-b\right) - \sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(3 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}}}}{3 \cdot a}\]
  4. Simplified0.6

    \[\leadsto \frac{\frac{\color{blue}{0 + 3 \cdot \left(a \cdot c\right)}}{\left(-b\right) - \sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(3 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}}}{3 \cdot a}\]
  5. Using strategy rm
  6. Applied associate-/r*0.6

    \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{\frac{\frac{0 + 3 \cdot \left(a \cdot c\right)}{\left(-b\right) - \sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(3 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}}}{3}}{a}}\]
  7. Simplified0.6

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