Notice that in the posted problem, |x-3|=< 0, the left side of that inequality can never be negative because of the absolute value. So there is no x value that will make the left side expression less than zero. But the only thing that can work is if x=3, when the left side equals the right side.

\[|x-3|=0\] \[x = 3\]
