Final answer:

The acceptable weight range for each component is from 29.5 g to 30.5 g inclusive. The inequality that describes this range is |30 - x| <= 0.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

The acceptable weight range for each component is from 29.5 g to 30.5 g inclusive. To describe this range using an inequality, we can consider the distance between the actual weight (x) and 30 g.

Since the acceptable range is within 0.5 g of 30 g, the inequality is:

| 30 - x| <= 0.5
