Derivation

1. Initial program 100.0%

   \[x + x \cdot x \]

2. Simplified 100.0%

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

   [Start] 100.0	\[ x + x \cdot x \]
   +-commutative [=>] 100.0	\[ \color{blue}{x \cdot x + x} \]
   fma-def [=>] 100.0	\[ \color{blue}{\mathsf{fma}\left(x, x, x\right)} \]

3. Final simplification 100.0%

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