a) How many ways can she choose her 9 scoops so she gets at least 1 scoop of each flavor?
Since there are 7 flavors, and she wants at least one of each then we have:
[tex]C=\frac{9!}{7!2!}\text{ =3}6[/tex]Alice has 36 possibilites of choosing

Considering He wants 9 scoups.
[tex]C=\frac{9!}{6!3!}=84[/tex]Kevin has 84 possibilities for banana or strawberries
