Do the "random(10)" then add "+ 5" so it will look like this: "random(10) + 5" thats it.

Yes, it will, if you do something like set the Health of an object to Health - (random(10) + 5).
Remember, though, that random(10) doesn't generate a number between 0 and 10, but instead 0 to 9 (therefore a range of ten numbers).

Generally, random numbers are generated using random(max-min) + min.
