You want to find in your textbook or some reference, the formula for surface area of a sphere. This is 4%2Api%2Ar%5E2.

The surface area for the straight side part of a cylinder is h%2A2pi%2Ar
and
The surface area for the bottom of a cylinder is pi%2Ar%5E2.

Your exercise referenced shows a straight circular cylinder capped on topped with a half-sphere. The height, h, of the straight cylinder part is 10 cm; the radius of the base is 7 cm or r; the radius of the half-sphere is also r=7 cm. Using these, the labeled total height of 17 cm has already been accounted.

The total surface area is the sum of those of the half-sphere, the straight sides, and the bottom base:
%284pi%2Ar%5E2%29%2F2%2B2%2Ah%2Api%2Ar%2Bpi%2Ar%5E2
Just simplify and substitute for r and h, and compute.
2pi%2Ar%5E2%2B2h%2Api%2Ar%2Bpi%2Ar%5E2
pi%282r%5E2%2B2hr%2Br%5E2%29
pi%283r%5E2%2B2%2Ah%2Ar%29
SUBSTITUTE THE VALUES:
3.142%283%2A49%2B2%2A10%2A7%29
3.142%28147%2B140%29
3.142%28287%29
highlight%28901.754%29 which should be rounded to highlight%28highlight%28901.8%29%29 cubic centimeters.
