Answer

$385,000\ W,365,000\ W,20,000\ W$

Work Step by Step

The upper limit is the measurement + tolerance, that is, $$ 375,000 +10,000 =385,000\ W .$$ The lower limit is the measurement - tolerance, that is, $$ 375,000 -10,000 =365,000\ W .$$ The tolerance interval = upper limit-lower limit, that is, $$ 385,000\ W-365,000\ W=20,000\ W .$$
