John and Steve are speed walkers in a race. John is 12 meters behind Steve when he begins his final push. John blazes to the finish at a pace of 4.2 m/s, while Steve maintains a blistering 3.7 m/s speed. If John finishes the race 2 meters ahead of Steve, how long was John’s final push?	Choose one
A) 13 seconds	B) 17 seconds	C) 26 seconds	D) 34 seconds	E) 28 seconds

Rationale: let t be the time that john spent for his final push . thus , per the question , 4.2 t = 3.7 t + 12 + 2 - - - > 0.5 t = 14 - - - > t = 28 seconds . e is the correct answer .
Answer: E
