The correct answer is: [-3,3]$\cup(-\infty,-4) \cup(4, \infty)$
Given, $\frac{3-|x|}{4-|x|} \geq 0$

$\Rightarrow 3-|x| \leq 0$ and $4-|x|<0$

or $3-|x| \geq 0$ and $4-|x|<0$

$\Rightarrow|x| \geq 3$ and $|x|>4$

or $|x| \leq 3$ and $|x|<4$

$\Rightarrow|x|>4$ or $|x| \leq 3$

$\Rightarrow x \in(-\infty,-4) \cup[-3,3] \cup(4, \infty)$
