First, you calculate the slope between the two points (difference of y / difference of x). Then you can use the equation, using one of the points (x1, y1):
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
Just replace x1 and y1 with the coordinates of the point, and m with with the slope.

How do you find slope if the points aren't given?
the slope is the 'm' in y=mx+b so even if the points aren't given, if there is an equation, then you can find the slope. for example, if you have an equation like this: y=2x+5 the slope is 2 and the y-intercept is 5.
How do you know if a quadratic equation will have one two or no solutions How do you find a quadratic equation if you are only given the solution Is it possible to have different quadratic equation?
Draw the graph of the equation. the solution is/are the points where the line cuts the x(horisontal) axis .
When two planes equation given and one parametric equation is given how can you find the plane equation?
If you have two equations give AND one parametric equation why do you need to find yet another equation?
How do you write the equation of a line that passes through two points given an example is it possible to find this on a calculator?
No, a calculator is useless, unelss you are dealing with values for x and y which require some difficult working out. Use the general form of a linear equation using two points on the line: y - y1 = (y1 - y2)/(x1 - x2)(x - x1), where the points given are (x1, y1) and (x2, y2).
How can you find the coordinates of two lines mathematically given the equation of both?
Subtract the equation of one line from the equation of the other
