Fill in the Blank

A medical clinic's regional administrator is combining the operational expense models of two local care centers. The monthly expense model for Center A is 4y2+5y+2{}4y^2 + 5y + 2 and for Center B is 8y2+4y+5{}8y^2 + 4y + 5, where yy represents the varying cost coefficient of medical supplies. To find the total monthly expense model, the administrator sums these expressions: 4y2+5y+2+8y2+4y+5{}4y^2 + 5y + 2 + 8y^2 + 4y + 5. After combining the like terms, what is the fully simplified expression for the total monthly expense? (Write your answer in standard form with no spaces, e.g., 12y^2+9y+7) ____.
