To solve the problem, we need to ensure that the function \( f(x) \) is continuous at \( x = 4 \). This means that the left-hand limit as \( x \) approaches 4, the value of the function at \( x = 4 \), and the right-hand limit as \( x \) approaches 4 must all be equal. Given the function: \[ f(x) = \begin{cases} \frac{x-4}{|x-4|} + a & \text{if } x < 4 \\ a + b & \text{if } x = 4 \\ ...
