I've got a pair of equations :

x^3-4x=y and y^3-4y=x

 which I've defined as eqns:={,}

and 9 solutions as solns1:={,,..}

and being stored as s1,s2,..s9

when I run a command such as testeq(subs(s1,eqns[1])=subs(s1,eqns[2])

I get an error of passing invalid arguments into testeq. What I essentially need to show is that on substituting for x,y from each s1,..s9; both equations get the same result. What am I doing incorrectly?

I've also noticed that just subs(s1,eqns[1]) returns an equality; I don't quite understand why
