To show that the limit \( \lim_{x \to 4} \frac{|x-4|}{x-4} \) does not exist, we need to evaluate both the left-hand limit and the right-hand limit as \( x \) approaches 4. ### Step 1: Evaluate the Left-Hand Limit We start by finding the left-hand limit, which is denoted as: \[ \lim_{x \to 4^-} \frac{|x-4|}{x-4} \] When \( x \) approaches 4 from the left (i.e., \( x < 4 \)), the expression \( x - 4 \) is negative. Therefore, we can rewrite the absolute value: ...
