Derivation

  1. Initial program 0.1

    \[\frac{x \cdot x - 3}{6}\]
  2. Using strategy rm
  3. Applied div-sub_binary640.1

    \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{x \cdot x}{6} - \frac{3}{6}}\]
  4. Simplified0.1

    \[\leadsto \frac{x \cdot x}{6} - \color{blue}{0.5}\]
  5. Using strategy rm
  6. Applied *-un-lft-identity_binary640.1

    \[\leadsto \frac{x \cdot x}{\color{blue}{1 \cdot 6}} - 0.5\]
  7. Applied times-frac_binary640.1

    \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{x}{1} \cdot \frac{x}{6}} - 0.5\]
  8. Simplified0.1

    \[\leadsto \color{blue}{x} \cdot \frac{x}{6} - 0.5\]
  9. Final simplification0.1

    \[\leadsto x \cdot \frac{x}{6} - 0.5\]
