Banquo was able to see some of the witches' prophecies fulfilled, like the one about Macbeth becoming king. He was also aware, as he lay there dying with twenty trenched gashes in his head, that their prophecy about him not becoming the king looked like it was going to come true also.

Why does duncan choose to give the thane of cawdor to Macbeth?
In a general way, because he had done good military service to the kingdom. In this respect, he might have given the title equally to Banquo. The fact that Macbeth was of royal blood and a close relative to the king was probably a factor. Duncan was an incurable nepotist as witness his making the feckless and militarily useless Malcolm the Prince of Cumberland. Do not make the mistake of thinking that it was a reward for capturing the traitor Cawdor. Macbeth didn't do that, because if he had, he would never have said shortly afterwards "The Thane of Cawdor lives, a prosperous gentleman! Why do you dress me in borrowed robes?" If he had said that after capturing him Ross would have replied "Because you just finished capturing him on the battlefield you stupid twit!"

Why do you think Shakespeare made the opening scene of Macbeth feature the three witches?
Shakespeare shows the three witches in the first scene of Macbeth to demonstrate that the play is a tragedy. Since witches are commonly associated with evil, this creates a dark and dangerous atmosphere and foreshadows death.

What redeeming qualities does Macbeth have?
If we look at the situation through the eyes of the Elizibethan audience that would be watching Macbeth, then yes, the end is very justified. To that audience, the natural order of things is very important, and during Macbeth, the order God created is severely disrupted. Once the Great Chain of being is disturbed and the tyrant Macbeth becomes King, all order seems to be lost. To the Elizibethan audience, the fact that innocent people are being killed is extremely upseting and by the end, justice must be served. In the way that Macbeth and Lady Macbeth die after perpetual suffering, and a good King, Malcolm, is appointed, justice is served and God's Natural Order is restored
Did Lady Macbeth kills Duncan and places the blame on the servants?
At least partly. Macbeth would never have committed the murder if she hadn't pushed him into doing it. But she would never have done it if there hadn't been someone she could push. They were both necessary.
