Derivation

  1. Initial program 11.6

    \[x - \frac{\left(y \cdot 2\right) \cdot z}{\left(z \cdot 2\right) \cdot z - y \cdot t}\]

  2. Simplified2.9

    \[\leadsto \color{blue}{x - \frac{y}{z - \frac{y \cdot t}{2 \cdot z}}}\]
  3. Using strategy rm

  4. Applied clear-num_binary642.9

    \[\leadsto x - \color{blue}{\frac{1}{\frac{z - \frac{y \cdot t}{2 \cdot z}}{y}}}\]

  5. Simplified2.9

    \[\leadsto x - \frac{1}{\color{blue}{\frac{z + \frac{t \cdot y}{z} \cdot -0.5}{y}}}\]

  6. Taylor expanded around 0 0.1

    \[\leadsto x - \frac{1}{\color{blue}{\frac{z}{y} - 0.5 \cdot \frac{t}{z}}}\]

  7. Simplified0.1

    \[\leadsto x - \frac{1}{\color{blue}{-0.5 \cdot \frac{t}{z} + \frac{z}{y}}}\]

  8. Final simplification0.1

    \[\leadsto x - \frac{1}{-0.5 \cdot \frac{t}{z} + \frac{z}{y}}\]
