Answer 1

The first step when conjugating infinitive verbs is to remove the infinitive ending -ar, leaving you with the stem - in this case, bail.

The next step would then be to add the verb ending which matches the subject. In present tense for bailar, they would be:

Yo bailo

Tu bailas

El/Ella baila

Nosotros bailamos

Ellos/Ellas bailan

Answer:

Drop the -ar from the infinitive, leaving the stem bail.
