How do valves and slides affect the pitch on brass instruments?

Brass instruments produce sound by the vibrating of the player's embouchure in a mouthpiece, and the valves and slides on the instrument alter the length of the tubing in the instrument which affects the pitch of the notes produced.

What clef does the baritone use?

If by the baritone you mean the euphonium in the military and wind bands the part is non-transposing and written in the bass clef.

In brass bands it is treated as a transposing instrument (Euphonium in B-flat) the part is written in the treble cleff sounding 1 octave + 1 tone lower than written.

If you are refering to the tenor saxhorn or Baritone (B-flat Baritone) as it is called as used in brass bands then it is always a transposing instrument written in the treble clef sounding 1 octave + 1 tone lower than written.

Then there is the baritone sax which is written in the treble clef (Baritone Sax in e-flat) which sounds 1 octave+ a sixth lower than written

On my version, you rest for six measures. Then you play a high C. You play a B, a high C, a B, and a high C (you play the last four notes as sixteenth notes and you hold the last C.) Then you play a B, a high C, a B, and a high C in sixteenth notes, a B and a G as an eighth note, a B as a quarter note, and a G and an F as an eighth note. You rest for one beat and then you play a B, a high C, a B, and a high C again as a sixteenth note, an F as a quarter note, and a D as an eighth note. Then you play E flat, E, E natural, and E as a sixteenth note, two F's as quarter notes, an E flat, a low C, and an F that's a half note. Then you play an E flat, an E, an E natural, and an E as a sixteenth notes, and then you play an F as a quarter note.
