 x1		y1	x2	y2			
2		2	1	-4			
							
slope m =		(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)					
(	-4	-	2	)/(	1	-	2
(	-6	/	-1	)  			
m=		6.00					
							
Plug value of  the slope  and point			(	2	,	2	) in
Y	=	m	x	+	b		
2.00	=	12    	+	b			
b=	2.00	-	12    				
b=	-10      						
So the equation  will be							
Y 	=	6      	x		-10
