    No it can not be. See explanation

    Explanation:

    - The equation of range takes initial velocity u and angle of initial velocity with the ground Q as inputs and we both of them are not given.

    - Even if the equation of motions are used in y-direction we have two unknowns initial velocity y-component and time it takes for the ball to reach the height given and 1 independent equation.

    - We have in total of two independent equations and 3 unknowns (2 initial velocity components ans time t required for the journey). Hence, the information given is insufficient to model the problem
