Explanation:

First Sentence: Roberto ____ ingeniero de sistemas.

In Spanish, when describing someone's profession, we use the verb "ser" (to be) in the appropriate conjugation. For the third - person singular (Roberto), the conjugation of "ser" is "es". So the correct completion is "es" because "ser" is used for permanent characteristics like profession, and with a singular subject like Roberto, "es" (from "ser") is the right form.

To indicate the location of a place (La Paz is a city), we use the verb "estar" (to be) in the appropriate conjugation. For the third - person singular (La Paz, which is a singular noun), the conjugation of "estar" is "está". We use "estar" for location, so "está" is the correct form.

When the subject is "Andrea y yo" (we, first - person plural), and we are describing a relationship (being friends), we use the verb "ser" (to be) in the first - person plural conjugation, which is "somos". "Ser" is used for relationships and permanent characteristics, and with a first - person plural subject, "somos" (from "ser") is the correct form.

Answer:

es

Second Sentence: La Paz ____ en Bolivia.
