To find the total shaded area that Bob will paint, we need to find the area of the entire wall and then subtract the area of the window.

The area of the wall is:

16 feet x 9 feet = 144 ft²

The area of the window is:

4 feet x 3 feet = 12 ft²

So the total shaded area that Bob will paint is:

144 ft² - 12 ft² = 132 ft²

Therefore, the answer is not one of the options provided.

There seems to be some ambiguity regarding the dimensions of the window as they are not shown in the image. Without this information, we cannot accurately determine the total shaded area that Bob will paint. Therefore, the answer is unknown.
