Question

I need help to answer these two questions. I attached it. 

I have an answer for the first one. Still not sure. 

* Assume that m is an even integer then by that definition of an even integer there exists another integer K such that m = 2k.

*Then, 5m + 3 = 5(2k) +3 = 10K +3 = 2(5k)+3 

*Therefore, we have proved that m is an even integer then 5m + 3 is an odd integer.

(3) 5. Write a direct proof to show that if m is an even integer then Sm+3 is an odd
integer.
(3)6. Write an indirect proof to show if 3m +1 is an odd integer then m is an even
integer.
