My 2 cents
Contrary to my better judgement, I'll throw in my 2 cents.
Every single math problem I have seen on here is missing some things. You can do a semi-simple math problem IF you take into consideration that you do not want the ball to touch a rail at all.
However, *pause*
You would need to consider many things amongst what has already been mentioned regards which angles, distances travelled, etc.
This unknown and almost impossible to account for is the rail. Not to mention if I use left or right english you have to account for throw plus reverse spin off the rail.
It boils down to if you know the table and knowing how far you can "cheat" the pocket from experience. I can say with slight certainty no one is sitting at the table with a paper and pencil doing the math during a game.
