Explanation:

The question is partially garbled and incomplete.

Please, see the complete question in the picture attached.

Translate each verbal statement into an algebraic expression.

1. First statement: Elena walked 20 minutes more than Lin.

Use the time walked by Lin as your reference value and call it x, as it is unknown. Then:

  • Time walked by LIn: x
  • Time walked by Elena:  x + 20

2. Second statement: Jada walked twice as long as Elena:

  • Time walked by Jada: 2(x + 20)

3. Third statement: Jada walked 90 minutes.

This, lets you to set the equation (equality):

  • 90 = 2(x + 20).

Now, you have all the terms and their meaning:

  • A. x                 ↔ 3. The number of minutes that Lin walked
  • B. x + 20         ↔ 2. The number of minutes that Elena walked
  • C. 2(x + 20)     ↔ 1. The number of minutes that Jada walked
  • D. 90              ↔  1. The number of minutes that Jada walked
