I have a 15 (C4,R2), 58(C4,R4), and 18(C4, R9). But, I can't find the w-y wing. What boxes are the 15, 58, 18 in? And, which is the pivot?

I had already found the pair and quad. But, where is the XY wing? This is new to me and I still haven't found one yet on my own.

Just when we think we're getting it.... Anyway, the next hint is a 7 in r1c6. We can't find the logic...Which doesn't mean much!

The next hint is a 1 in column 7 and row 8. This is where I am stuck. I don't know the logic in eliminating the 9. I neatened up the rows does that help? Or did I screw it up more?

I am stuck. The hint took me to bottom right square putting a 1 in first column, middle row. Why? I can't figure out the logic.
