Answer 1

To determine your earnings per hour, we start with the equation:

\[ 40y = 280 \]

Here, \( y \) represents your earnings per hour. We can solve for \( y \) by dividing both sides of the equation by 40:

\[ y = \frac{280}{40} \]

Calculating that:

\[ y = 7 \]

Thus, your earnings per hour are $7.00.
