What is the slope of a line that goes through (2,-2) and (5,6)?
A. 8/3
B. 4/3
C. 3/4
D. 3/8
The slope of a line passing through two points $(x_1, y_1)$ and $(x_2, y_2)$ is given by:
$$\text{slope} = \dfrac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$$
Plugging in the given values, we get:
$$\text{slope} = \dfrac{6 - (-2)}{5 - 2} = \dfrac{8}{3}$$
Therefore, the answer is $\boxed{\textbf{(A) }8/3}$.
