.18x International Links
50 + .10x World Connections

.18x <50 + .10x

solve for x.

It would be less then the World because of the international and if you add the cost of how much it is the answer shows you that it's less.
Definitely International. Just looking at the problem, you would already agree that International is way cheaper.
