9 Ball! -- A simulation game
Activity Overview
Students are to find the linear equations that go through pool balls on a 9 ball pool table using the 'cue' ball and the 'pockets' of the pool table to line up the linear equations.
They are to use linear functions in the point-slope form of y=m(x - x1) + y1.
