Answer:

C. A noun

Step-by-step explanation:

An infinitive is the word "to" plus a verb. An infinitive phrase includes any modifiers or objects. An infinitive phrase can function as a noun, an adjective, or an adverb. In the sentence, the infinitive phrase "to achieve his goal" functions as a noun. It is the direct object of the verb "decided."

It was a study island question.
