Answer 1

The rate is y=6.66x to solve do 40/6 this gets you 6.666666667 which is 6.66

Answer 2

The only thing between you and the answer is a division problem, you divide 40 by 6 and find 6.6666, a repeating decimal, and you answer. For every one yard this person mows, he/she earns $6.66 (with a line under it that signifies a repeating decimal) dollars an hour.
