I did some research, and I think it's the first one. PLEASE CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG!!
Here's why, because the first segment extends from 0 to 1. So, x has to be 0 or larger, but less than 1 or 1.
        
             
        
        
        
Answer: She started with $160.
It will take 6 weeks before she has less than half of what she originally invested.
Step-by-step explanation:
If her money is decreasing in value by 11% each week, it means that the rate at which it is decreasing is exponential.
We would apply the formula for exponential decay which is expressed as 
A = P(1 - r)^t
Where
A represents the value of the investment after t weeks.
t represents the number of weeks.
P represents the initial value of the investment.
r represents rate of depreciation.
From the information given,
A = $142.40
r = 11% = 11/100 = 0.11
t = 1 
Therefore
142.40 = P(1 - 0.11)^1
142.40 = P(0.89)
P = 142.4/0.89
P = 160
For her to have half of what she invested originally, then
80 = 160(0.89)^t
80/160 = (0.89)^t
0.5 = (0.89)^t
Taking log of both sides to base 10
Log 0.5 = log0.89^t = tlog0.89
- 0.3010 = - 0.051t
t = - 0.3010/- 0.051 
t = 5.9 
Approximately 6 weeks 
 
        
             
        
        
        
1/40+1/50=1/n
5/200+4/200=1/n
9/200=1/n
9n=200
n=200/9 minutes for both of them to prepare the field
