To find the value of \(-5 - \sqrt{5}\), we first need to calculate \(\sqrt{5}\).

The approximate value of \(\sqrt{5}\) is about 2.236.

Now, we perform the calculation:

\[ -5 - \sqrt{5} \approx -5 - 2.236 = -7.236 \]

Next, we round \(-7.236\) to the nearest hundredth.

The value rounded to the nearest hundredth is \(-7.24\).

None of the provided responses match \(-7.24\). Therefore, the given options do not include the correct answer based on this calculation.
