Explanation:

Question 1

We need to choose between "lavar" (to wash) and "lavarse" (to wash oneself). Here, the object is "el auto" (the car), so we use the transitive verb "lavar". The subject is "Tú", so the correct form is "lavarás" (you will wash).

We choose between "bañar" (to bathe someone) and "bañarse" (to bathe oneself). The subject is "Nosotros" (we) and the action is about bathing ourselves before the party, so we use the reflexive verb "bañarnos" (we will bathe ourselves). The correct form for "Nosotros" is "bañaremos" (we will bathe ourselves) or more precisely, in the context of the sentence structure, the correct verb is "bañarnos" but the conjugation for "Nosotros" with "bañarse" is "nos bañaremos", but in the blank, we need the verb part. Wait, actually, the correct verb is "bañarse" and the conjugation for "Nosotros" is "nos bañamos" but in the future tense? Wait, the sentence is "antes de ir a la fiesta" (before going to the party), so maybe present tense? Wait, no, the structure is "Nosotros [verb] antes de ir a la fiesta". Let's re - evaluate. "bañar" is transitive (bañar a alguien - to bathe someone), "bañarse" is reflexive (to bathe oneself). Since the subject is "Nosotros" and the action is self - bathing, we use "bañarnos". The correct conjugation for "Nosotros" in the present tense (since it's a routine before the party) is "nos bañamos", but in the blank, we need the verb form. Wait, maybe the question is in the future? Wait, the first question has "ás" which is future. So for "Nosotros", the future of "bañarse" is "nos bañaremos", but the blank is for the verb part. Wait, maybe the correct verb is "bañarse" and the conjugation is "bañaremos" (but with the reflexive pronoun). Wait, maybe I made a mistake. Let's think again. The two options are "bañar" and "bañarse". The subject is "Nosotros" and the action is about bathing before the party. If we use "bañar", we would need an object (like "a los niños"), but here there is no object other than the subject itself. So we use the reflexive verb "bañarse". The correct form for "Nosotros" in the future tense (matching the first question's "ás" which is future) is "bañaremos" (but with the reflexive pronoun "nos" implied? Wait, no, the reflexive verb "bañarse" for "Nosotros" in future is "nos bañaremos", but the blank is for the verb part. Maybe the question expects the verb "bañarse" conjugated as "bañaremos" (but actually, the correct form is "nos bañaremos", but the blank is probably for "bañaremos" with the reflexive understood? Wait, maybe the answer is "bañaremos" (using "bañarse").

We choose between "acostar" (to put someone to bed) and "acostarse" (to go to bed oneself). The object is "a los niños" (the children), so we use the transitive verb "acostar". The subject is "Raúl y Marta" (they), so the correct form is "acostarán" (they will put).

Answer:

lavarás
