During a recent period of time, the numbers (in thousands) of makes M and females F that attend colleges and other degree programs in the United States can be modeled by M=19.7t^2+310.5t+7539.6 and F=28t^2+368t+10127.8 where tis time in years. Write a polynomial that represents the total number of people Pattending colleges and other degree programs. P=18,395.6t^3 P=47.7t^2+678.5t+17,667.4 P=47.7t^4+678.5t^2+17,667.4 P=-8.3t^2-57.5t-2588.2

To find the polynomial that represents the total number of people P attending colleges and other degree programs, we need to add the given polynomials for males M and females F.Given: To find P, we add M and F: Combining like terms: Therefore, the polynomial that represents the total number of people P attending colleges and other degree programs is:
