    y = 2m-5

    Kim's age now is y = 2m-5

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let m represent martas age now and y represent Kim's age now

    Given;

    Five years ago Kim's age was twice as great as martas age.

    (y-5) = 2 (m-5)

    Solving for y;

    y-5 = 2m-10

    y = 2m-10+5

    y = 2m-5

    Kim's age now is y = 2m-5
