Derivation

  1. Initial program 43.9

    \[\frac{\left(-b\right) + \sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(3 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}}{3 \cdot a} \]

  2. Simplified43.9

    \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\left(\sqrt{\mathsf{fma}\left(b, b, a \cdot \left(c \cdot -3\right)\right)} - b\right) \cdot \frac{0.3333333333333333}{a}} \]

  3. Taylor expanded in b around inf 3.0

    \[\leadsto \color{blue}{-\left(0.5625 \cdot \frac{{c}^{3} \cdot {a}^{2}}{{b}^{5}} + \left(1.0546875 \cdot \frac{{c}^{4} \cdot {a}^{3}}{{b}^{7}} + \left(0.375 \cdot \frac{{c}^{2} \cdot a}{{b}^{3}} + 0.5 \cdot \frac{c}{b}\right)\right)\right)} \]

  4. Simplified3.0

    \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\left(\frac{{c}^{3}}{\frac{{b}^{5}}{a}} \cdot a\right) \cdot -0.5625 - \mathsf{fma}\left(0.5, \frac{c}{b}, \mathsf{fma}\left(1.0546875, \frac{{c}^{4}}{{b}^{7}} \cdot {a}^{3}, 0.375 \cdot \left(\frac{c \cdot c}{{b}^{3}} \cdot a\right)\right)\right)} \]

  5. Final simplification3.0

    \[\leadsto \left(a \cdot \frac{{c}^{3}}{\frac{{b}^{5}}{a}}\right) \cdot -0.5625 - \mathsf{fma}\left(0.5, \frac{c}{b}, \mathsf{fma}\left(1.0546875, \frac{{c}^{4}}{{b}^{7}} \cdot {a}^{3}, 0.375 \cdot \left(a \cdot \frac{c \cdot c}{{b}^{3}}\right)\right)\right) \]
