$\bigstar$ $\bigstar$|$\bigstar$ $\bigstar$|$\bigstar$ $\bigstar$ $\bigstar$ \\  Notice any scenario will result in 9 slots, 2 for the bars, and 7 for the stars(candies). \\  _ \ _ \ _ \ _ \ _ \ _ \ _ \ _ \ _ \\  Simply put all we are deciding in each case is where to put the bars. Therefore we have 9 slots choose 2 slots to place the bars or $\binom {9}{2}$. Equivelantly, we also have 9 slots choose 7 slots to place the stars or $\binom {9}{7}$. Feel free to verify that those are indeed the same. \\  To finish the problem $\binom{9}{2}= \frac{9!}{7!2!}=36$ different ways to place the candies.
