Explanation:

• Infinitives are non finite verbs. It forms with a 'to' before any finite verb.
• In the above questions, the 'not' has been omitted by placing infinitive.
• Infinitives are placed in that sentence which is the reason of the matter. We have put 'to' before the 2nd sentence in each questions to combine them.
