Derivation

1. Initial program 0.12

   \[x - \frac{3}{8} \cdot y \]

2. Simplified 0

   \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\mathsf{fma}\left(y, -0.375, x\right)} \]
   Proof

   [Start] 0.12	\[ x - \frac{3}{8} \cdot y \]
   cancel-sign-sub-inv [=>] 0.12	\[ \color{blue}{x + \left(-\frac{3}{8}\right) \cdot y} \]
   +-commutative [=>] 0.12	\[ \color{blue}{\left(-\frac{3}{8}\right) \cdot y + x} \]
   *-commutative [=>] 0.12	\[ \color{blue}{y \cdot \left(-\frac{3}{8}\right)} + x \]
   fma-def [=>] 0	\[ \color{blue}{\mathsf{fma}\left(y, -\frac{3}{8}, x\right)} \]
   metadata-eval [=>] 0	\[ \mathsf{fma}\left(y, -\color{blue}{0.375}, x\right) \]
   metadata-eval [=>] 0	\[ \mathsf{fma}\left(y, \color{blue}{-0.375}, x\right) \]

3. Final simplification 0

   \[\leadsto \mathsf{fma}\left(y, -0.375, x\right) \]
