Use the two-point form of an equation of a line.
where
and
are the coordinates of the given points.
Substitute your given coordinate values, do the arithmetic, simplify, and re-arrange to the form:
Where
,
, and
are integers to obtain the standard form of an equation whose solution set is the graph of a line containing the two given points.
