Sports and Leisure In the 1936 Summer Olympic Games, Jesse Owens won the 100-meter dash in a time of 10.3 seconds. If he could have raced at that speed against Usain Bolt in the 2016 Olympic Games, how far behind, to the nearest tenth of a meter, would Owens have been when Bolt finished the race? (See Example 3 on page 429.)
EXAMPLE 3 Sports and Leisure In the 2016 Summer Olympic Games, Usain Bolt of Jamaica won the men’s 100-meter dash in a time of 9.81 seconds. In the 1964 Games, Bob Hayes of the United States won the same event in a time of 10.0 seconds. Suppose these two champions could have run against each other at those same speeds. How far behind, in meters, would Hayes be as Bolt crossed the finish line?
