Understanding and applying geometric series

On the first day posted online a music video got 320 views. The number of views increased each day by 5%. How many TOTAL views will the video get over the first 29 days? Which formula works?

• $S_n=\frac{320-320\left(.95\right)^{29}}{1-.95}$

• $a_n=320\left(1.05\right)^{29}$

• $S_n=\frac{320-320\left(1.05\right)^{29}}{1-1.05}$

• $a_n=320\left(.95\right)^{29}$
