Homework Statement
The "hang time" of a punt is measured to be 3.50 s. If the ball was kicked at an angle of 69.0° above the horizontal and was caught at the same level from which it was kicked, what was its initial speed? (Neglect air resistance.)

All Kinematics Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
Acceleration (y) = -9.81 m/s^2
Acceleration (x) = 0 m/s^2
Time = 3.5 s
Vi,x = (Vi)cos69
Vi,y = (Vi)sin69
Now I don't think I have enough information to solve the problem, but I know the problem isn't written incorrectly. I don't know where to go with the information I have because I can't solve for anything.
Help please? Thanks in advance.
