So what we know from that is that angle is 30 degrees south of west. so you go 30 degrees down from west. How can we do this? well <span>basically what you have to do is to break down the force into x and y component. The y component of large force and the y component of small force should cancel so that the boat doesn't go north and south and the x components of both the forces should add up so that it goes west only.</span>

If you want to make it so that you work most of the hours on the first 4 days,  you should work 5 hours.  5*4=20,  so 1 hour would be left over on the 5th day.
