Use the two-point form of an equation of a line:
(x\ -\ x_1) )
where )
and )
are the coordinates of the given points.
Once you have substituted the values from your given points, do the arithmetic and solve for 
in terms of everything else.
However, please note that you cannot write "the" equation of any line. You can only write "an" equation of a line. In the first place, you could just substitute the values in the point-slope form and have an equation of the desired line, or you could solve for 
to put it into slope-intercept form, or you could rearrange it into standard form, namely 
. Furthermore, for a given 
, 
, and 
, 
where 
describes a set of equations with an infinite number of elements, each of which graphs to the same line in 
.
