True/False

A structural engineer is auditing a support beam's tension balance modeled by the equation 9y+2=6y+3{}9y + 2 = 6y + 3, where yy represents the tension coefficient. True or False: If substituting a coefficient of y=13y = \frac{1}{3} into the equation results in the simplified mathematical statement 5=5{}5 = 5, this confirms that y=13y = \frac{1}{3} is a valid solution for the tension balance.
