I think that's the one wanted.
On her fedora Mate, there is no System -> Preferences -> Hardware -> "keyboard shortcuts"
What there is, System -> Preferences -> Hardware -> keyboard -> Accessibility (a tab) -> A checkmark for "Accessibility features can be toggled with keyboard shortcuts"
But that does not provide anything to fix her problem. So, the issue might be with different mate config menus for different distros/versions ???
Yeah, I have that program too, but it's not the one needed.
pls see if there are any other mate packages not installed:
yum list available | grep -y mate
perhaps one of them dthat isn't installed has the progrm you need.
here is a list of all the mate packages I have installed, FYI: libmatekbd.x86_64 1.10.0-1.el7 @epel libmatemixer.x86_64 1.10.0-1.el7 @epel libmateweather.x86_64 1.10.0-1.el7 @epel libmateweather-data.noarch 1.10.0-1.el7 @epel mate-applets.x86_64 1.10.3-1.el7 @epel mate-backgrounds.noarch 1.10.0-1.el7 @epel mate-calc.x86_64 1.8.0-1.el7 @epel mate-control-center.x86_64 1.10.1-1.el7 @epel mate-control-center-filesystem.x86_64 1.10.1-1.el7 @epel mate-desktop.x86_64 1.10.1-2.el7 @epel mate-desktop-libs.x86_64 1.10.1-2.el7 @epel mate-dictionary.x86_64 1.10.2-1.el7 @epel mate-disk-usage-analyzer.x86_64 1.10.2-1.el7 @epel mate-icon-theme.noarch 1.10.1-1.el7 @epel mate-icon-theme-faenza.noarch 1.10.0-1.el7 @epel mate-media.x86_64 1.10.0-1.el7 @epel mate-menus.x86_64 1.10.0-1.el7 @epel mate-menus-libs.x86_64 1.10.0-1.el7 @epel mate-menus-preferences-category-menu.x86_64 mate-notification-daemon.x86_64 1.10.0-1.el7 @epel mate-panel.x86_64 1.10.1-1.el7 @epel mate-panel-libs.x86_64 1.10.1-1.el7 @epel mate-polkit.x86_64 1.10.0-1.el7 @epel mate-power-manager.x86_64 1.10.1-1.el7 @epel mate-screensaver.x86_64 1.10.2-1.el7 @epel mate-screenshot.x86_64 1.10.2-1.el7 @epel mate-search-tool.x86_64 1.10.2-1.el7 @epel mate-session-manager.x86_64 1.10.2-1.el7 @epel mate-settings-daemon.x86_64 1.10.1-1.el7 @epel mate-system-log.x86_64 1.10.2-1.el7 @epel mate-system-monitor.x86_64 1.10.1-1.el7 @epel mate-terminal.x86_64 1.10.1-1.el7 @epel mate-themes.noarch 1.10.1-1.el7 @epel mate-utils-common.noarch 1.10.2-1.el7 @epel
good luck!

She has all of the packages you mention, except for libmatemixer, which is available in fedora 22 updates repo. But I do not think that the mixer has anything to do with my friend's problem at hand.
OK, I have one (or two) more suggesion(s): on my centos system, the menu item for "keyboard shortcuts" maps to the program named gnome-keybinding-properties.
On a Fedora-21 VM I have, it links to mate-keybinding properties.
so, if your friend has either of those two programs, that's the one you need, at least for the purpose of checking out the earlier suggestion from another poster.
You don't even need to link it into the menus, you should be able to run it from the commandline.
Fred
Fred, u r a lifesaver. On her system, it is /usr/bin/mate-keybinding-properties
and that was the magic bullet!!!
Many thanx!!!
Cheers,
JD
Glad I was able to help!
