The problem in the image asks to calculate \((8.5 \times 10^6) + (3.4 \times 10^6)\) and provide the answer in standard index form.

### Step-by-step solution:

1. **Identify the common factor**: Both terms have the same power of \(10\), which is \(10^6\). This allows us to combine the coefficients directly.
   
2. **Combine the coefficients**: Add the coefficients of the terms:
   \[
   8.5 + 3.4 = 11.9
   \]

3. **Multiply by the common power of 10**: Since both terms had the power of \(10^6\), the result will be:
   \[
   11.9 \times 10^6
   \]

4. **Express in standard index form**: The answer \(11.9 \times 10^6\) is already in standard index form.

So, the final answer is:
\[
1.19 \times 10^7
\]
