Hi there! f(18) makes the value of x 18 and x is the number of movies watched in 1 month. Therefore, A and C are eliminated because we’re talking 18 movies, not 18 months. B is also out, because Kelsey would pay more than $27 a month for the service, especially with the service fee. 18 * 1.50 is 27 and 27 + 12.50 is 39.50. Kelsey spends $39.50 a month watching 18 movies per month. The answer is D.
