I got 25m

Explanation:

We could use the relationship from Kinematics:

v_f^2=v_i^2+2ad

that, with your data for the first part, gives:

15^2=30^2+2a*75

solving for a:

a=-4.5m/s^2

we use this acceleration in v_f^2=v_i^2+2ad again for the second part where the final velocity will be zero and initial 15m/s:

0^2=15^2-2*4.5*d

d=25m
