15. 41.68 inches

16. 78.79°

Step-by-step explanation:

It's a little hard to explain in just text, but I'll try.

15 ================

This is assuming that "length" means the base of the ramp, not the top. Imagine/draw a right triangle with a 21° angle at the bottom and a height of 16 inches. We have the angle, the opposite side, and we need to find the adjacent side that is the base. Use tangent (soh cah toa) to find this.

x ≈ 41.68

16 ================

From the angle between the ladder and the ground, the ground is adjacent and the ladder is the hypotenuse. Given 2 sides and no angle, we'll use inverse cosine.

x ≈ 78.79°

f(x) has value 150 at x= 0

and 0 at x= 3

so d(f(x))/dt = slope = -150/3 = -50
