The sum of the polynomials is [tex]\bold{4.5t^3 + 12.3t^2-132t+24}[/tex].
Given polynomials are:
[tex]1.3t^3+t^2-42t+8\\ 1.3t^3+t^2-6t+8 \\1.9t^3+8.4t^2-42t \\1.9t^2-42t+8[/tex]
To find the sum of the polynomials, add the coefficients of the terms of same degree in each polynomials. That is add the terms containing [tex]t^3[/tex] , then terms of [tex]t^2[/tex], then terms of t and finally the constant terms of the polynomials.
So we get, [tex](1.3t^3+t^2-42t+8)+(1.3t^3+t^2-6t+8 )+(1.9t^3+8.4t^2-42t )+(1.9t^2-42t+8)\\ = (1.3+1.3+1.9)t^3+(1+1+8.4+1.9)t^2+(-42-6-42-42)t+(8+8+8)\\=\bold{4.5t^3 + 12.3t^2-132t+24}[/tex]
