Silver Nitrate is a salt and Hydrochloric acid is an acid. So when the reaction takes place, it becomes:

AgNO3(aq) + HCl(aq) ® AgCl(s) + HNO3(aq)

So the reaction makes Silver chloride and Hydrogen nitrate.

Is the reaction a synthesis reaction? or decomposition reaction? or double displacement reaction? or is it single replacement reaction?

The correct answer for the above question is the choice D i.e. Single replacement reaction. We know that Silver Nitrate is a salt and Hydrochloric acid is an acid. When the  reaction between the two compounds takes place, it becomes:    AgNO3(aq) + HCl(aq) ® AgCl(s) + HNO3(aq)    Thus through single replacement reaction we get Silver chloride and Hydrogen nitrate.

The reaction is as follows;

AgNO3(aq) + HCl(aq) ® AgCl(s) + HNO3(aq)

So the result would be Silver chloride and Hydrogen nitrate.

The reaction will occur as follows.
Ag+(aq) + NO3-(aq)+H3O+(aq)+Cl-(aq)= AgCl(s) +H3O+(aq)+NO3-(aq)
A precipitate is formed and the strong nitric acid.

No its a double displacement reaction. I'm sure.

Decomposition is

xy -> x + y

Double displacement is

xy + ab -> xa + yb (or xb + you)

AgNO3 + HCl = AgCl(s) + HNO3. This reaction is a precipitation reaction.
Though HCl and HNO3 are strong acid we see that precipitation is formed and will not decompose in the presence of these acids. This means that the precipitation formed is a very stable one.
