Why is dhcp rarely used to assign addresses for servers?
Often it is the server that is hosting the DHCP, so it can not assign its own address. But usually its just useful if the servers always have the same IP address. For example if a server is hosting a DNS server (as company servers often do), and all the workstations in the company are looking to that IP address for DNS info, the IP addrss can not change. If the IP address of the DNS server were to change then no computers on the network would be able to resolve domain names.
Should a dhcp server a dns server and a gateway all have the same IP address?
It's up to you. People usually have different ip addresses for gateways and DNS/DHCP servers. It's because a separate server is used for gateway.
