First, we should solve the inequality |x2-4x+3|<3 by first adding 4x and subtracting 3 from each side of the inequality giving us |x2|<4x. Next, divide x from each side and we see that |x|< 4 for the inequality to be true. Valid?

-3 which is equivalenet to
0 and
x^2-4x<0......(2)

Solve for (1)
x can be any real number

Solve for (2)
0
So the final solution is
0

Let x = 0

|0² - 4*0 +3|<3
|0 - 0 + 3| < 3
|3| < 3
±3 < 3

3 < 3 is false so the assertion that it is true for |x| < 4 is false as shown by a counter example.

x^2-4x+3=(x-1)(x-3)

|1^2-4(1)+3|<3
0<3 True

|3^2-4(3)+3|<3
0<3 True

To prove the result, try substituting the answer back into the original equation.

Try 3.

|3^2-4*3+3|
|9 -12 +3|
|0| < 3

If you have a calculator try 3.5 and 4.

For those who would say the Bible is not the Word of God, or that the Bible contains numerous errors I would say this: Paul could say in 2nd Timothy 3:16, "All Scripture is given by inspiration of God." That's the Greek word, "theopneustos" meaning "God-Breathed." Every single word was given from God to 40 different men, and 2nd Peter 1:21 adds: "for no prophecy was ever made by an act of human will, but men moved by the Holy Spirit spoke from God." Now that was the Old Testament. The New Testament wasn't in existence when Paul used these verses. He was telling the churches in his letters what had happened in the past, but in John 16:12-13, Jesus talked about the coming of the New Testament. He says, "I have many more things to say to you, but you cannot bear them now. But when He, the Spirit of Truth, comes, He will guide you into all the truth; for He will not speak on His own initiative, but whatever He hears, He will speak; and He will disclose to you what is to come." That's the New Testamant. And we can say with John 17:17, "Your Word is Truth." Today, we have 66 books written by 40 different individuals on 3 continents covering a period of 1,500 years and there's not one mistake, regardless of what some of the critics say. They haven't studied God's Word enough to know the truth. Among the writers we had kings, poets, philosophers, prophets, scholars and fisherman. And I want you to know we have all of the Word of God today. Someone says, "Yes, but we don't have the original manuscripts" Who said so? We have copies totalling 24,800. Now, how do we know that they're right? Well, if you take 20 items and you compare them and 19 state one thing and one doesn't, then the one is in error. We've got 24,800 manuscripts that exist today to compare one against another and we have another 80,000 quotations from the church fathers, enough to put the entire Bible together with the exception of 11 verses. Take the 80,000 quotations from the church fathers and the 24,800 manuscripts for a total of 104,800 and you have all of God's Word dozens and hundreds of times. This is so because God's Word is literally flawless. After computers have compared millions, or even billions, of letters in analyzing the 104,800 manuscripts the texts are basically flawless. So, don't listen to the critics. The Bible is the Word of the Living God!

This can be re-written as

x^2 - 4x <0

x(x-4) < 0 x=0 or x-4=0

therefore 0
What you have written is only half the answer.
