We are given the following function

[tex]C(t)=87t+32[/tex]

Where C represents the total cost of purchasing t tires and oil change.

Recall that the standard form of slope-intercept form is given by

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Comparing the standard form with the given function we see that

slope = m = 87

y-intercept = b = 32

Therefore, the number 87 in the function represents the slope that is the cost per tire purchased.
