Create the required linear function an use it to answer the question.In 1995 the United States recovered 20% of its municipal solid wastes through recycling, up from 17% in 1990. Let P represent the percentage recycled and t the number of years since 1990. Based on these two data points, create a linear equation for the function that describes how P varies as a function of time.
A. P = 0.6t + 17
B. P = -0.6t + 7
C. P = 0.6t + 24
D. P = 0.3t - 17
