To find the total number of acres in the park and the forest combined, we simply add the areas of the park and the forest.
Area of the park = 1.42 × 10^6 acres
Area of the forest = 1.2 × 10^6 acres
Total area = (1.42 × 10^6) + (1.2 × 10^6) = 2.62 × 10^6 acres
Therefore, the total number of acres in the park and the forest combined is 2.62 × 10^6 acres.
