What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (-2,-3) and (-7,-13)

The height of a flare fired from the deck of a ship in distress can be modeled by h(t)= -2(8t^2-52t-28), where h is the height of the flare above water and t is the time in seconds. a. find the time it takes the flare to hit the water.

I’m really confused and need your assist me with this question i’ve never been taught

Triangle xyz, with vertices x(-2, 0), y(-2, -1), and z(-5, -2), undergoes a transformation to form triangle x? y? z? , with vertices x? (4, -2), y? (4, -3), and z? (1, -4). the type of transformation that triangle xyz undergoes is a . triangle x? y? z? then undergoes a transformation to form triangle x? y? z? , with vertices x? (4, 2), y? (4, 3), and z? (1, 4). the type of transformation that triangle x? y? z? undergoes is a .
