The exact steps depend a bit on how you formed the equation for the line containing the two points. You would either have point-slope form, or slope-intercept form. Regardless of which form you start, you want to finish in something of the form, Ax+By=C.

In case you mostly need help in first finding the equation, check this helpful example video:
