Let's break down the options Zach has:

  1. Location: library or mall
  2. Mode of transportation: walk or bike
  3. Company: alone or with a friend

To get all the possible combinations, we can list them as follows:

  1. library, walk, alone
  2. library, walk, with a friend
  3. library, bike, alone
  4. library, bike, with a friend
  5. mall, walk, alone
  6. mall, walk, with a friend
  7. mall, bike, alone
  8. mall, bike, with a friend

Now, we can fill in the gaps in the sample set list provided:

  1. library, walk, alone
  2. library, walk, with a friend
  3. library, bike, alone
  4. library, bike, with a friend
  5. mall, walk, alone
  6. mall, walk, with a friend
  7. mall, bike, alone
  8. mall, bike, with a friend

So, you should choose "walk" for the second option in the library, and "bike" for the option in the mall.
