The correct option is this: X: FOUND BETWEEN IMPERMEABLE ROCK.
Y: CONTAINS THE WATER TABLE.
Confined aquifer refers to a water bearing layer, that is confined by a rock, which does not allow transmission of water. An unconfined aquifer is one that is not restricted by any overlain rock. Thus, confined aquifer is found between impermeable rock, while unconfined aquifer contain the water table.
