Derivation

  1. Initial program 9.8

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

  2. Applied associate-/l*_binary642.5

    \[\leadsto x + \color{blue}{\frac{y - z}{\frac{a - z}{t}}} \]

  3. Taylor expanded in y around 0 10.1

    \[\leadsto x + \color{blue}{\left(\frac{y \cdot t}{a - z} - \frac{t \cdot z}{a - z}\right)} \]

  4. Simplified1.1

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

  5. Final simplification1.1

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