Answer 1

Given:

The video included a 5-minute introduction followed by short segments.

Eddie's video was 149 minutes long.

So, the total time between the segments = 149 - 5 = 144

And given: Each segment was 8 minutes long.

so, the number of segments =

$\frac{144}{8}+1=18+1=19$

So, the answer is option D. 19
