Jake's age = 18.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given  : Mindy is 39 years old. Mindy's age is 3 years older than two times Jake's age.

To find : How old is Jake.

Solution : We have given Mindy is 39 years old.

Let the Jake's age = x .

According to question :

Mindy's age is 3 years older than two times Jake's age.

Mindy's age = 2x  ( Two times of Jake's age )

Mindy's age = 2x + 3 (  Three more than Jake's age ) .

39 = 2x + 3 .

On subtracting both sides by 3

39 -3 = 2x .

36 = 2x .

On Dividing both sides by 2 .

18 = x

Therefore, Jake's age = 18.
