Answer:
#1 - 11
#2 - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
#1 - This is really simple, as long as you don't think of it as numbers. The numbers 5 and 3 are being added to a number to make 19, so all you have to do is 19 - 5 - 3 or 19 - 8, which equals 11. So the certain number is 11.
#2 - The equation for this problem is (3 x ?) - 5 = 10. This equation is formed because you are subtracting 5 from 3 times a number, and to do all of this first, you need to figure out what 3 times a number equals (so it goes into the parentheses). From there, all you need to do is give a value that would substitute the question mark (normally you use a variable like <em>n, x, y, etc.</em>). This value would be 5, because 3 x 5 = 15 and 15 - 5 = 10.
