Based on the information provided, it seems that the answers are correct.

To identify passive and active voice, you need to understand the basic structure of a sentence and determine whether the subject is performing the action (active voice) or receiving the action (passive voice). Let's go through the sentences you provided to determine whether they are in active or passive voice.

1) Voice used in writing in which the subject of a sentence does the action.
- This is a definition rather than a sentence, so it does not demonstrate passive or active voice.

2) The subject is acted upon by the verb.
- Again, this is a definition, not a sentence.

3) Somebody painted a colorful mural on the classroom wall.
- This sentence is in active voice, as the subject "somebody" (implied as a person) performs the action of painting the mural.

4) To make writing stronger.
- This is not a sentence, but a phrase. It does not demonstrate voice.

5) Local television stations are owned by larger news organizations.
- This sentence is in passive voice, as the subject "local television stations" is the one being acted upon ("owned") by the larger news organizations.

It's important to note that active voice is generally preferred in writing because it is more direct and concise. However, passive voice can be used when the focus is on the recipient of the action rather than the doer.
