The slope of a line is determined by the ratio of the change in the y-coordinates to the change in the x-coordinates between any two points on the line.
The two given points are (0,0) and (-4,-5).
The change in the y-coordinates (rise) is -5 - 0 = -5.
The change in the x-coordinates (run) is -4 - 0 = -4.
Therefore, the slope of the line is -5/-4 = 5/4 or 1.25.
What is the slope of the line 0,0 -4,-5
