    2. Simplified64.0

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\sqrt{\mathsf{fma}\left(x, x, y\right)}} \]

    3. Taylor expanded in x around -inf 0.0

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{-1 \cdot x} \]

    4. Simplified0.0

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{-x} \]

    if -1.00000000000000004e154 < x < 2.0000000000000001e142
