The equation (1) is divided by 2 to create new equivalent system of equations.
Step-by-step explanation:
The given systems of equations are:

Considering 8y instead of 8 in eq(1)
We need to identify what action was completed to create this new equivalent system of equations? 
Comparing given equations we came to know that equation(1) is divided by 2 to get the new equation i.e

While second equation is same as given.
So, The equation (1) is divided by 2 to create new equivalent system of equations.

3x - 2 when X = 2
= 3(2) - 2
= 6 - 2
= 4
So, in conclusion, the answer to this question is 4.

Correct question with correct options has been attached
Answer:
37
Step-by-step explanation:
Let C represent those dressed as heroes and let B represent those wearing mask
Thus;
n(C) = 39
n(D) = 45
We are told that 21 entrants were dressed as heroes wearing a mask.
Thus; n(C n D) = 21
We are also told that there were a total of 100 entries.
Thus, n(T) = 100
Now, number of entrants neither dressed as heroes nor wearing a mask is given by;
n(T) - n(C u D)
n(C u D) = n(C) + n(D) - n(C n D)
n(C u D) = 39 + 45 - 21
n(C u D) = 63
Thus;number of entrants neither dressed as heroes nor wearing a mask is: 100 - 63 = 37
