The first day the magazine was published the company got 190 responses but they were declining by 10% each day assuming this continues, how many total responses would the company get over the first 29 days?

• $S_n=\frac{190-190\left(.90\right)^{29}}{1-.90}$

• $S_n=\frac{190-190\left(.10\right)^{29}}{1-.10}$

• $S_n=\frac{190-190\left(1.10\right)^{29}}{1-1.10}$

• $a_n=190\left(.90\right)^{n-1}$
