Answer is A
This is because she already has 18 points and every time she gets 3 points for each movie (x)
So you add the 3x to 18 to get the total points, y

A, it should be Y=3x+18 because y=mx+b form, but it’s the same thing. It’s 3x because every movie she sees (x) times 3 is the amount of points she will have. And it’s plus 18 because she already has 18 points.
