There are many different terms one can choose when determining the length of a mortgage. Choosing a 40-year mortgage typically means lower payments, which is more affordable to most individuals.

How does your payment change between a 30 and 40 year mortgage?

A payment on a 40 year loan, if it is a fixed-rate loan, will be smaller, provided all other factors like loan balance and interest rate are the same. If you are talking about an adjustable rate loan, well, your payment will vary on your interest rate more than how long the loan term is. A 40 year loan will pay-down your loan slower, meaning at 10 years, you'll owe more on a 40 year loan than a 30 year loan. You may also pay more towards interest on a 40 year loan.
