Assertion oncard x A = card x A = card A

Proof

Step Hyp Ref Expression
1 id A = card x A = card x
2 fveq2 A = card x card A = card card x
3 cardidm card card x = card x
4 2 3 eqtrdi A = card x card A = card x
5 1 4 eqtr4d A = card x A = card A
6 5 exlimiv x A = card x A = card A
7 fvex card A V
8 eleq1 A = card A A V card A V
9 7 8 mpbiri A = card A A V
10 fveq2 x = A card x = card A
11 10 eqeq2d x = A A = card x A = card A
12 11 spcegv A V A = card A x A = card x
13 9 12 mpcom A = card A x A = card x
