there are the rays that start at points A , B and D but legally wouldn't the ray that starts at point D and goes through A be a ray that keeps going and so on.....

What is confusing here is the figure, did you draw the lines and arrows or this is the original drawing?
But coming from the picture, you most likely didn't count the CD and DE both ways..
AB/BA, AD/DA, BD/DB, CD/DC, DE/ED, CE/EC

I don't know how you define a ray, but I'm getting 18.
