Derivation

  1. Split input into 2 regimes

  2. if b < 1411.56476086479483

    1. Initial program 17.5

      \[\frac{\left(-b\right) + \sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(4 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}}{2 \cdot a}\]

    2. Simplified17.5

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{\sqrt{b \cdot b - 4 \cdot \left(a \cdot c\right)} - b}{a \cdot 2}}\]
    3. Using strategy rm

    4. Applied flip--17.4

      \[\leadsto \frac{\color{blue}{\frac{\sqrt{b \cdot b - 4 \cdot \left(a \cdot c\right)} \cdot \sqrt{b \cdot b - 4 \cdot \left(a \cdot c\right)} - b \cdot b}{\sqrt{b \cdot b - 4 \cdot \left(a \cdot c\right)} + b}}}{a \cdot 2}\]

    5. Simplified16.5

      \[\leadsto \frac{\frac{\color{blue}{b \cdot b - \left(b \cdot b + 4 \cdot \left(a \cdot c\right)\right)}}{\sqrt{b \cdot b - 4 \cdot \left(a \cdot c\right)} + b}}{a \cdot 2}\]

    6. Simplified16.5

      \[\leadsto \frac{\frac{b \cdot b - \left(b \cdot b + 4 \cdot \left(a \cdot c\right)\right)}{\color{blue}{b + \sqrt{b \cdot b - 4 \cdot \left(a \cdot c\right)}}}}{a \cdot 2}\]

    if 1411.56476086479483 < b

    1. Initial program 36.6

      \[\frac{\left(-b\right) + \sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(4 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}}{2 \cdot a}\]

    2. Simplified36.6

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{\sqrt{b \cdot b - 4 \cdot \left(a \cdot c\right)} - b}{a \cdot 2}}\]

    3. Taylor expanded around inf 16.2

      \[\leadsto \frac{\color{blue}{-2 \cdot \frac{a \cdot c}{b}}}{a \cdot 2}\]

    4. Simplified16.1

      \[\leadsto \frac{\color{blue}{-2 \cdot \left(\frac{a}{b} \cdot c\right)}}{a \cdot 2}\]
    5. Using strategy rm

    6. Applied associate-/l*16.2

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{-2}{\frac{a \cdot 2}{\frac{a}{b} \cdot c}}}\]

    7. Simplified16.2

      \[\leadsto \frac{-2}{\color{blue}{b \cdot \frac{2}{c}}}\]
  3. Recombined 2 regimes into one program.

  4. Final simplification16.3

    \[\leadsto \begin{array}{l} \mathbf{if}\;b \leq 1411.5647608647948:\\ \;\;\;\;\frac{\frac{b \cdot b - \left(b \cdot b + 4 \cdot \left(a \cdot c\right)\right)}{b + \sqrt{b \cdot b - 4 \cdot \left(a \cdot c\right)}}}{a \cdot 2}\\ \mathbf{else}:\\ \;\;\;\;\frac{-2}{b \cdot \frac{2}{c}}\\ \end{array}\]
