Answer:

$b=2\frac23\:\sf ft$

Area of triangle = 4 ft²

Area of rectangle = $6\frac23\: \sf ft^2$

Area of irregular figure = $10\frac23\: \sf ft^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\begin{aligned}\sf Base\:of\:triangle\:(b) & = 5-2\frac13\\\\& = \dfrac{15}{3}-\dfrac73\\\\ & = \dfrac83\\\\ & = 2\frac23\:\sf ft \end{aligned}$

$\begin{aligned}\sf Area\:of\:a\:triangle & =\dfrac12 \sf \times base \times height\\\\& = \dfrac12 \times b \times 3\\\\ & = \dfrac12 \times \dfrac83 \times \dfrac31\\\\ & = \dfrac{24}{6}\\\\ & = 4\: \sf ft^2\end{aligned}$

$\begin{aligned}\sf Area\:of\:rectangle& =\sf length \times width\\\\& = 5 \times 1\frac13\\\\ & = \dfrac51\times \dfrac43\\\\& = \dfrac{20}{3}\\\\ & = 6\frac23\: \sf ft^2\end{aligned}$

$\begin{aligned} \sf Area\:of\:irregular\:figure & = \sf area\:of\:triangle+area\:of\:rectangle\\\\ & = 4 + 6\frac23\\\\ & = 10\frac23\: \sf ft^2\end{aligned}$
