This is a very poorly written question. im assuming the house wall is at least 130 ft since there is no information given about it.
each set of side lengths has three elements, the long side and the two short sides. we're asked to list all whole number possibilities so start anywhere, the two short sides being 1ft
(1 1 130). the long side has to be the difference of 132 and the length of both short sides.
the area is one of the short sides times the ling side, in the first case 1*130=130 sqft
continuing the list
(2 2 128) area=256
(3 3 126) area=378
(4 4 124) area=496
(5 5 122) area=610
the short sides increase by 1, the long side decreases by 2, the area gets bigger, but the difference between the areas are 4 less each time. dividing the first difference, 122, by 4 will give us a number to make a better guess from.
122÷4=30.5
so lets try
(30 30 72) area=2160
lets try 31 and see if that gives a smaller area
(31 31 70) area = 2170
(32 32 68) area =2176
(33 33 66) area = 2178
(34 34 64) area = 2176
so the area is decreasing now which means the maximum area is found when thw long side is 66 feet and the short sides are 33 feet.
as far as listing all possibilities, you see the pattern i started, i leave the rest to you

Answer:
![67.5\text{ [square units]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=67.5%5Ctext%7B%20%5Bsquare%20units%5D%7D)
Step-by-step explanation:
The composite figure consists of one rectangle and two triangles. We can add up the area of these individual shapes to find the total area of the irregular figure.
<u>Formulas</u>:
- Area of rectangle with base
and height 
: 
- Area of triangle with base and height :
By definition, the base and height must intersect at a 90 degree angle.
The rectangle has a base of 10 and a height of 5. Therefore, its area is 
.
The smaller triangle to the left of the rectangle has a base of 2 and a height of 5. Therefore, its area is 
.
Finally, the larger triangle on top of the rectangle has a base of 5 and a height of 5. Therefore, its area is 
.
Thus, the area of the total irregular figure is:
![50+5+12.5=\boxed{67.5\text{ [square units]}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=50%2B5%2B12.5%3D%5Cboxed%7B67.5%5Ctext%7B%20%5Bsquare%20units%5D%7D%7D)
It should be 3366. To find the percent increased, multiply 3300 by .02 and add that to 3300, giving you 3366.
