Theorem ax7

Description: Proof of ax-7 from ax7v1 and ax7v2 (and earlier axioms), proving sufficiency of the conjunction of the latter two weakened versions of ax7v , which is itself a weakened version of ax-7 .

Note that the weakened version of ax-7 obtained by adding a disjoint variable condition on x , z (resp. on y , z ) does not permit, together with the other axioms, to prove reflexivity (resp. symmetry). (Contributed by BJ, 7-Dec-2020)

Assertion ax7 x = y x = z y = z

Proof

Step Hyp Ref Expression
1 ax7v2 x = t x = y t = y
2 ax7v2 x = t x = z t = z
3 ax7v1 t = y t = z y = z
4 3 imp t = y t = z y = z
5 4 a1i x = t t = y t = z y = z
6 1 2 5 syl2and x = t x = y x = z y = z
