For the first part of the question is what I've written valid and is there a much straight forward approach?![Name: Screenshot 2022-07-06 at 14.26.27.png

Also can I just show for each configuration of a1,a2,a3 and provide a set of b1,b2,b3 that works?
For example if Betty knows, (2,3,4)= a_1,2,3
he/she can choose (3,4,2)= b_1,2,3 to win and repeat for all the possible configurations?

But I note at the outset,
are non-negative integers; not necessarily positive integers. So, your initial list of possible triplets summing to 9 is far from complete.

'Fraid I find your workings too torturous to read, so I don't generally look through them in any detail.

Could you give me a set of numbers that sum to 9 that I haven’t considered yet?

, without explaining what 
is, let alone why it equals 3. Don't do that.
Edit: yes I know what you probably mean, and I know why you probably thought it was obvious. But I (or an examiner) should not be having to go through what you've written and basically fill in the gaps for you. Yes, this is a repeated them in my responses to you.
