Guys please help me with this one
Thanks
The tube has the surface area of SA= 3.14(r)^2 + 2(3.14)rh.
In order to solve this problem, you will need to know the height and radius or diameter of the tub.
1) x=0.5, it gives you the height but you still need the diameter or the radius. INSUFFICIENT
2) The Tub is 1m high but still does not provide you with the radius of the tub. INSUFFICIENT.
COMBINE: You have the height but still do not have the radius or diameter.
THE ANSWER IS E: Not enough information.
