when dropping the Ex, you cannot just replace the variable. it doesn't work that way. in line 5 i applied the rule of E.I.
U.I. means universal instatiation
M.P. means Modus Ponens
I.d. means Principle of ideneity, it is the set of rules that go with "="
E.I. means existential instantiation, it is the rule that goes with dropping Ex
D.S. means disjunctive syllogism
comm. means commutativity
simp. means simplification
now hopefully you can translate to the format you want
