Linear Equation Games Unit: Activity #9 9 Ball Game
This activity provides a ‘9 Ball Pool Table’ on a graph page. Students are to begin the game by clicking on the ‘play’ button to start the animation of the pool balls. They move the 'cue' ball around and find equations that go through the 'cue' ball, another ball(s) and the hole.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/linear-equation-games-unit-activity-9-9-ball-game
