Hey there!
Combine Like Terms and see if the expressions are equivalent or not.
6x-4-x
6x-x-4
5x-4
Is 5x-4 equivalent to 7x-4? No.
Hope everything is clear.
Let me know if you have any questions!

Question 1:
Statement Reasons
m∠ABD + m∠DBC = m∠ABC Angle addition postulate
60° + 40° = m∠ABC Substitution Property of equality
100° = m∠ABC Simplpifying
∠ABC is an obtuse angle Definition of obtuse angle

Question 2:
Statement Reasons
AC = BD Given
AC = BC + BD Segment addition postulate
AB + BC = BC + CD Addition property of equality
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Question 3:
Angle congruence postulate
