To find the slope of a line passing through two points, we can use the slope formula:
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1),
where (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are the coordinates of the two points.
In this case, (x1, y1) = (0, -4) and (x2, y2) = (5, -5).
m = (-5 - (-4)) / (5 - 0)
m = (-5 + 4) / 5
m = -1 / 5
Therefore, the slope of the line passing through (0, -4) and (5, -5) is -1/5.
