How is the two point formula used to find the equation of a line when 2 points are known?

a.
taking the change in y over the change in x
c.
dividing the first y by the first x
b.
taking the change in x over the change in y
d.
dividing the first x by the first y

To find the slope of a line, you would find the change in y over the change in x, where the rise of a slope is defined by the y coordinate and the run of the slope is defined by x.
