Derivation

  1. Initial program 15.8

    \[x \cdot \log \left(\frac{x}{y}\right) - z\]
  2. Using strategy rm

  3. Applied add-cube-cbrt_binary64_1477615.8

    \[\leadsto x \cdot \log \left(\frac{x}{\color{blue}{\left(\sqrt[3]{y} \cdot \sqrt[3]{y}\right) \cdot \sqrt[3]{y}}}\right) - z\]

  4. Applied add-cube-cbrt_binary64_1477615.8

    \[\leadsto x \cdot \log \left(\frac{\color{blue}{\left(\sqrt[3]{x} \cdot \sqrt[3]{x}\right) \cdot \sqrt[3]{x}}}{\left(\sqrt[3]{y} \cdot \sqrt[3]{y}\right) \cdot \sqrt[3]{y}}\right) - z\]
