Verifying a Financial Scaling Factor

A financial consultant is auditing a cost-projection model represented by the equation 9y+2=6y+3{}9y + 2 = 6y + 3. They need to verify if the scaling factor y=43y = \frac{4}{3} is a valid solution. According to the three-step determination strategy, what is the resulting mathematical statement after substituting the value and simplifying both sides, and what does this statement indicate about whether y=43y = \frac{4}{3} is a solution?
