@Bernard My code gave numbered equation of which I could not screenshot properly. No, it is not necessary to be a numbered equation.

Try in-line math instead. Note: this will not number your cases.
documentclass{article}
usepackage{enumerate}
usepackage{amsmath}
begin{document}
begin{enumerate}[(i)]
item Statement 1.
item $X_r = begin{cases}
2r-2, & text{for $k = 1$,}\
2r-3, & text{otherwise}.
end{cases}$
end{enumerate}

Another alternative for JouleV solution would be to use flalign from amsmath as in
documentclass{article}
usepackage{enumerate}
usepackage{amsmath}
begin{document}
begin{enumerate}[(i)]
item Statement 1.
item begin{flalign}X_r& = begin{cases}
2r-2, & text{for $k = 1$,}\
2r-3, & text{otherwise}.
end{cases}&end{flalign}
