To determine the values of \( h \) and \( k \) in the translation functions \( f(x) = x + h \) and \( g(y) = y + k \), we need to find how the coordinates of point \( A \) translate to point \( A' \).

The coordinates of point \( A \) are \( (2, 2) \) and the coordinates of point \( A' \) are \( (1, -3) \).

To find \( h \) and \( k \):

  1. For the \( x \)-coordinate: \[ A_x + h = A'_x \] \[ 2 + h = 1 \] Solving for \( h \): \[ h = 1 - 2 = -1 \]

  2. For the \( y \)-coordinate: \[ A_y + k = A'_y \] \[ 2 + k = -3 \] Solving for \( k \): \[ k = -3 - 2 = -5 \]

Therefore, the values are:

  • The value of \( h \) is \( -1 \).
  • The value of \( k \) is \( -5 \).
