Answer:

6 units left and 9 units down

Explanation:

we have that


y=(x-5)^(2) +7

This is a vertical parabola open upward

The vertex is the point (5,7)


y=(x+1)^(2) -2

This is a vertical parabola open upward

The vertex is the point (-1,-2)

so

The transformation of

(5,7) ------> (-1,-2)

has the following rule

(x,y) -----> (x-6,y-9)

That means ----> The translation is 6 units at left and 9 units down
