Explanation:

In grammar, the term voice refers to the relationship between the action or state expressed by the verb and the participants of the sentence, such as the subject, object, and others. There are two voices in English:

  • The active voice - the sentence has a subject that acts upon its verb (e.g A boy is eating a sandwich).
  • The passive voice - the subject is the recipient of a verb's action (e.g. A sandwich is being eaten by a boy).

Based on this information, we can determine whether the given sentences are written in the active or passive voice.
