The figure presents quadrilateral A, C D F, where side A, F and side C D are horizontal, and side C D lies above side A, F. Side C D is longer than side A, F. Point B lies on left side A, C, and point E lies on right side D F. Line segment B E, which is horizontal, divides quadrilateral A, C D F into two quadrilaterals, A, B E F and B C D E.

In the figure above, $side A, F$ , $line segment B E$ , and $side C D$ are parallel. Points B and E lie on $side A, C$ and $side F D$ , respectively. If $the length of line segment A, B equals 9, the length of line segment B C equals 18 point 5$ , and $the length of line segment F E equals 8 point 5$ , what is the length of $line segment E D$ , to the nearest tenth?

A
16.8
B
17.5
C
18.4
D
19.6
