Correct Answer:

The computer has not been used by Usnis for weeks.

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (2) → The computer has not been used by Usnis for weeks.

The correct passive voice sentence is: The computer has not been used by Usnis for weeks.

  • Subject and object: The direct object "the computer" becomes the subject of the passive sentence.
  • Verb: The verb "has not used" is changed to "has not been used" to reflect the passive voice.
  • Agent: The subject of the original sentence, "Usnis," becomes the agent of the passive sentence, introduced by the preposition "by."

Therefore, the correct option is "The computer has not been used by Usnis for weeks."
