To simplify the algebraic expressions provided, we will combine like terms in each expression.

1. **Expression: -2m + 3t - 2m - t**
- Combine like terms:
- For m: -2m - 2m = -4m
- For t: 3t - t = 2t
- Simplified expression: **-4m + 2t**

2. **Expression: 4m - 2t + 2m - t**
- Combine like terms:
- For m: 4m + 2m = 6m
- For t: -2t - t = -3t
- Simplified expression: **6m - 3t**

3. **Expression: 3m + t - m + 2t**
- Combine like terms:
- For m: 3m - m = 2m
- For t: t + 2t = 3t
- Simplified expression: **2m + 3t**

We can pair the results above:

- **-2m + 3t - 2m - t** → **-4m + 2t**
- **4m - 2t + 2m - t** → **6m - 3t**
- **3m + t - m + 2t** → **2m + 3t**

Unfortunately, without a specific list of options for matching each expression and simplified expression, I can't provide the exact matches you need. If you provide a list of choices for each pairing, I can assist you with the matching.
