let t be Timberlake's age
:
1) t + p = 75
:
2) t = 2p -39
:
solve equation 1 for t
:
t = 75 - p
:
substitute for t in equation 2
:
**********************************************************
3) 75 - p = 2p -39
:
3p = 114
:
p = 38
t = 75 - 38 = 37
:
Timberlake is 37 and Pink is 38
: 
check the answer by substituting for t and p in equation 2
