Here

Acceleration and initial velocities are constant.

According to first equation of kinematics.

$\\ \sf\longmapsto v=u+at$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto v=0+at$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto v=at$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto v\propto t$

Time was t at velocity v
Time will be 4t at velocity 4v

so I know you can solve this either by using Vox or Voy. I'm getting 3.08s when using Vox and 3.14s for Voy way. For Voy I'm usi

The person's horizontal position is given by

$x=v_0\cos40^\circ t$

and the time it takes for him to travel 56.6 m is

$56.6\,\mathrm m=\left(24.0\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)\cos40^\circ t\implies t=3.08\,\mathrm s$

so your first computed time is the correct one.

The question requires a bit of careful reading, and I think there may be a mistake in the problem. The person's vertical velocity $v_y$ at time $t$ is

$v_y=v_{0y}-gt$

which tells us that he would reach the ground at about $t=3.15\,\mathrm s$ . In this time, he would have traveled

$x=v_{0x}(3.15\,\mathrm s)=57.9\,\mathrm m$

But we're told that he is caught by a net at 56.6 m, which would mean that the net cannot have been placed at the same height from which he was launched. However, it's possible that the moment at which he was launched doesn't refer to the moment the cannon went off, but rather the moment at which the person left the muzzle of the cannon a fraction of a second after the cannon was set off. After this time, the person's initial vertical velocity $v_{0y}$ would have been a bit smaller than $\left(24.0\,\frac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)\sin40^\circ$ .
