You cannot.

You need four coordinates (two horizontal and two vertical) to uniquely identify two points. Having identified the two points, you can determine the slope (or gradient) as

[difference in vertical coords]/[difference in horizontal coords]

Then use this slope (m) and either of the two points in the equation y = mx + c to determine the value of c.

What is liner programming?

Do you mean linear programming?Simply put, you have to maximize/minimize, a linear equation (e.g. a = 2x + 3y) subject to constraints (e.g. x>4; y>7; x,y>0)(to solve the example, graph x=4 and y=7 and x,y=0. determine the area where all these three conditions are possible and find the coordinates of the points where there are intersections. Substitute these coordinates into the linear equation, a=2x+3y. The coordinate where a is highest is where you maximize the linear equation, while the coordinate where a is lowest is where you minimize the linear equation.)here's a link to an article on wikipedia about linear programmingen.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_programming

Is a linear equation in two variables 3 plus e equals 2.3f plus e-7g?

It is a linear equation in three variables which is equivalent to a linear equation in two variables. This is because 3 + e = 2.3f +e - 7g is equivalent to 3 = 2.3f -7g
