Explanation:

To change these sentences to the passive voice, we need to rearrange the sentence structure and use the appropriate form of the verb "to be" followed by the past participle of the main verb. The subject of the active sentence becomes the object of the passive sentence, and the object of the active sentence becomes the subject of the passive sentence.

For example: - Active: Mike brushes his shoes before school. - Passive: His shoes are brushed by Mike before school.

We apply the same transformation to the remaining sentences to make them passive.
