Answer 2

Answer:

“Many office assistants were appointed by the manager” is a passive voice of the given sentence.

Explanation:

In the passive voice the position of the subject is changed to the object and the object shifts to the position of the subject. This is because the verb which was directly associated with the subject and signified its action showed an active action. In the passive however the work of the verb has to be performed indirectly through an agent which was the original subject. Thus an auxiliary verb has to be used followed by the transitive verb.  

In the sentence ‘The manager appointed many office assistants’ the manager was the subject and office assistants the object. Thus in the passive many office assistants shifts to the position of the subject, ‘were’ is the auxiliary verb and the agent is manager.
