proof of equation b in recursive variance

become

proof of equation b in recursive variance (b)

Question: How can it be?

Proof that proof of equation b in recursive variance

Equivalent to

proof of equation b in recursive variance (change position of term)

Equivalent to

proof of equation b in recursive variance (because proof of equation b in recursive variance )

Equivalent to

proof of equation b in recursive variance (expanding the term of lhs)

Equivalent to

proof of equation b in recursive variance (cancel out proof of equation b in recursive variance )

Equivalent to

proof of equation b in recursive variance (because proof of equation b in recursive variance )
