True/False

A chemical technician is verifying a concentration level, yy, against the laboratory balance equation 5y+3=10y4{}5y + 3 = 10y - 4. During the verification process for the value y=75y = \frac{7}{5}, the technician simplifies both sides of the equation to reach the statement 10=10{}10 = 10. True or False: Because this resulting statement is true, y=75y = \frac{7}{5} is confirmed as a valid solution to the equation.
