Derivation

1. Initial program 29.7

   \[\frac{\left(1 + \frac{1}{\varepsilon}\right) \cdot e^{-\left(1 - \varepsilon\right) \cdot x} - \left(\frac{1}{\varepsilon} - 1\right) \cdot e^{-\left(1 + \varepsilon\right) \cdot x}}{2} \]

2. Simplified 29.7

   \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{\left(1 + \frac{1}{\varepsilon}\right) \cdot e^{\left(1 - \varepsilon\right) \cdot \left(-x\right)} - \left(\frac{1}{\varepsilon} + -1\right) \cdot e^{\left(1 + \varepsilon\right) \cdot \left(-x\right)}}{2}} \]
   Proof

   [Start] 29.7	\[ \frac{\left(1 + \frac{1}{\varepsilon}\right) \cdot e^{-\left(1 - \varepsilon\right) \cdot x} - \left(\frac{1}{\varepsilon} - 1\right) \cdot e^{-\left(1 + \varepsilon\right) \cdot x}}{2} \]
   distribute-rgt-neg-in [=>] 29.7	\[ \frac{\left(1 + \frac{1}{\varepsilon}\right) \cdot e^{\color{blue}{\left(1 - \varepsilon\right) \cdot \left(-x\right)}} - \left(\frac{1}{\varepsilon} - 1\right) \cdot e^{-\left(1 + \varepsilon\right) \cdot x}}{2} \]
   sub-neg [=>] 29.7	\[ \frac{\left(1 + \frac{1}{\varepsilon}\right) \cdot e^{\left(1 - \varepsilon\right) \cdot \left(-x\right)} - \color{blue}{\left(\frac{1}{\varepsilon} + \left(-1\right)\right)} \cdot e^{-\left(1 + \varepsilon\right) \cdot x}}{2} \]
   metadata-eval [=>] 29.7	\[ \frac{\left(1 + \frac{1}{\varepsilon}\right) \cdot e^{\left(1 - \varepsilon\right) \cdot \left(-x\right)} - \left(\frac{1}{\varepsilon} + \color{blue}{-1}\right) \cdot e^{-\left(1 + \varepsilon\right) \cdot x}}{2} \]
   distribute-rgt-neg-in [=>] 29.7	\[ \frac{\left(1 + \frac{1}{\varepsilon}\right) \cdot e^{\left(1 - \varepsilon\right) \cdot \left(-x\right)} - \left(\frac{1}{\varepsilon} + -1\right) \cdot e^{\color{blue}{\left(1 + \varepsilon\right) \cdot \left(-x\right)}}}{2} \]

3. Taylor expanded in eps around 0 0.5

   \[\leadsto \frac{\color{blue}{\left(e^{-1 \cdot x} \cdot x + e^{-1 \cdot x}\right) - \left(-1 \cdot \left(e^{-1 \cdot x} \cdot x\right) + -1 \cdot e^{-1 \cdot x}\right)}}{2} \]

4. Final simplification 0.5

   \[\leadsto \frac{\left(x \cdot e^{-x} + e^{-x}\right) + \left(x \cdot e^{-x} + e^{-x}\right)}{2} \]
