Let us assume the weight of the red snapper caught by Dana = X
The weight of the tuna caught by Jason was 3 times the weight of the snapper caught by Dana. Then,
Weight of the tuna caught by Jason = 3X
Weight of the sailfish caught by Murray is 12 times the weight of the red snapper caught by Dana. Then,
Weight of the sailfish caught by Murray = 12X
The combined weight of the 3 fishes caught = 208 pounds.
Then,
X + 3X + 12X = 208
16X = 208
X = 208/16
= 13
So the red snapper weighed 13 pounds
The weight of the tuna caught by Jason = 3X
= 3 * 13
= 39
So the tuna weighed 39 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:
This is the answer that i found (x4-81) hope it helps have a great day!
Step-by-step explanation:
Given (2x + 23), (8x + 2) and (20x - 52) are three consecutive terms of an arithmetic sequence.
(8x + 2) - (2x + 23) = (20x - 52) - (8x + 2)
or, 6x - 21 = 12x - 54
or, 12x - 6x = - 21 + 54 = 33
or, 6x = 33
or, 2x = 11
∴ x = 11/2
∴2x + 23 = 2 × 11/2 + 23 = 34
8x + 2 = 8 × 11/2 + 2 = 46 and
20x - 52 = 20 × 11/2 - 52 = 110 - 52 = 58
34, 46 and 58 are three consecutive terms of an arithmetic sequence.
∴ Common difference(d) = 46 - 34 = 58 - 46 = 12, it is proved.
Hence, the common difference of the sequence is 12.
Answer: True because every 10 millimeters are equal to 1 centimeter
So, that as well means 1 millimeter is equal to .1 centimeter
