Decide whether the problem can be solved using precalculus or whether calculus is required.?
If the problem can be solved using precalculus, then solve it. If the problem is seems to required calculus, explain your reasoning and use a graphical or numerical approach to estimate the solution.

2. Find the distance traveled in 15 seconds by an object moving with a velocity of v(t) = 20 + 7 cos t feet per second.
