PAR Manufacturing manufactures steel rods. Suppose the rods ordered by a customer are manufactured to a specification of 0.5 in. and are acceptable only if they are within the tolerance limits of 0.49 in. and 0.51 in. Letting $x$ denote the diameter of a rod, write an inequality using absolute value signs to express a criterion involving $x$ that must be satisfied in order for a rod to be acceptable.
